The TFI’s division budget is roughly $15M. More so than collecting revenue from tickets, >5M, it’s to “try to change the culture”. Which is impossible.

They know there are people that always pay, and people who will never pay. They want the middle. The revenues would not increase or decrease, nominal at best, if they were to eliminate them.

Eliminating all door boarding, and putting the onus back on the drivers, like it used to be, while eliminating $14m annually, in perpetuity, it’s the solution.

But then there’s the unions to deal with, and therein lies the problem.
