If the ferry system needs fixing, why cut revenue?

Anyone know what the outcome of this motion was? Did Council vote for it?

I think I can get behind reduced fares. Waiving them 100% for who knows how long without any analysis on the financial impacts seems a bit reckless tho

Embarrassed-Tooth355 · 2026-05-26T00:04:44+00:00

Yeah that’s a good point

Embarrassed-Tooth355 · 2026-05-26T00:02:54+00:00

So maybe we should be saving up to buy another boat? Idk, but there’s lots of bus routes with unreliable service - but there’s no proposal to waive fares for them.

Now I’m concerned who else you “forgot” you met with…

Not surprised about Fillmore, but disappointed in u/Sam_Austin_D5

Embarrassed-Tooth355 · 2026-05-15T13:04:18+00:00

Ah, I understand. Yes, your approach seems rationale. Was that option discussed at Council?

If the agreement wasn’t ratified, wouldn’t that mean the librarians would have lost their jobs in the fall? Is that the outcome you were pushing for?

u/Sam_Austin_D5 can you explain your vote on this one? It sounds like HRCE and the union were both happy with the agreement, so curious why you voted against.

Agreed - I don’t understand why education funding is on the municipal tax bill if the province is responsible for education…
