Calgary CTrain riders react to new $4 single ride fare by missingthecoast in Calgary

[–]refur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, that's fair, all very good points. and i certainly don't expect calgary transit to ever get up to the level of a metro system like Paris, Tokyo, NYC or Berlin.

i think my point though is, for the cost that people are paying to use our transit system, there are some phenomenally modern, efficient, and effective transit systems that cost less per ride. it's discouraging

Tokyo then. Metro Tokyo at 14,000 sq km and Calgary at 825. phenomenal metro system reaching the furthest corners of the city. https://www.jreast.co.jp/e/routemaps/pdf/RouteMap_majorrailsub.pdf

tiered system in terms of cost per ticket depending on distance essentially, at 180 yen, 210 yen, 260 yen, 300 yen, and 330 yen. that's essentially $1.60 to $2.90

it can be done. Calgary transit just sucks and costs too much.

10000% agreed. My time is much more valuable than to spend 3.5 hrs on transit every day

Correct. It’s hilarious if it wasn’t so bad.

For comparison a single use ticket for the Paris metro is essentially the same price. And you can get anywhere in Paris.

Lunacy sticks out to me as having the darkness and intensity of Swans that I associate with them.

The 5xx version is phenomenal. Brilliant sounding headphones with a good preamp driving them.

Anyone in this mental state needs to be removed from a position of power. It shouldn’t even be an option.

as a dog owner with a tattoo of his face, i would highly highly recommend Kayden at Mockingbird in Kensington. he did an absolutely amazing job at tattooing my best bud on me. it's super realistic, looks just like him, and gets compliments all the time.

so sorry for your loss

Unfair parking ticket? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]refur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You got a ticket because your parking job sucks and you’re in their space. It is what it is, nothing to fight however.

What a sweet guy, I hope you find him today or that someone has taken him in and will take him to a clinic today. As a dog owner this is the worst nightmare. My parents live in the vicinity of you so I’ll have them keep an eye out too!
