There is no reason for us to expect public transit to be self-sustaining... it's neoliberal bullshit.
Transit is a service and it should be funded in a large part by provincial taxes.
Politicians like treating transit like a cruise. It would be weird if a cruise ship was losing money.
Transit should be treated like a road. It would be weird if a road MADE money.
PPP toll roads would like a word with you.
I would like a word with PPP toll roads
Feel free to smack them down on my behalf as well.
Why do some people always want people a thousand miles away to pay for services they dont use? This isn't healthcare. Civic taxes not provincial.
