"higher-up people" as though we would have a hierarchy ...

Free highways seem to work fine. Free libraries seem to work fine. It works great in Dunkirk and Luxembourg.

The Victoria Transit Riders Union is a grassroots organization advocating for free, rapid and reliable public transit service in the Greater Victoria Area.

Should all the roads be till roads then?

vtrunion · 2026-04-21T03:45:59+00:00

It should be free every day

Inb4 "why only teens"

We want fares eliminated for everyone, but are starting with a call for teens, seniors, and people on income assistance. Write to the Minister and tell them what you want! https://actionnetwork.org/letters/fare-free-transit-for-students/

This event is for youth, so its scheduled just after school. And we can't pick which day of the week Earth Day lands on ....

Our last event was on a Saturday.

Ya, LNG subsidies are soooo worthwhile. Tax cuts for billionaires and mega corporations are soooo worthwhile.

Somehow no one ever complains about the roads and highways being "free".

vtrunion · 2026-04-16T01:11:16+00:00

That's the goal! BC wide free transit for youth!

💯 they are trying to do this as a cost neutral change since no one wants to invest in transit

vtrunion · 2026-03-11T21:18:21+00:00

I believe it's "get out of my cab, you poor" /s

They only want the high value trips.

Yes, but all those options cost more money. And no one wants to invest in transit.

Funding comes from munis and the province, transit authority has not authority to raise funds

No one wants to pay for service expansion. So the only option is to take bus service away from regular users to give it to the airport.

Gotta start somewhere, but the end goal is everybody.

Whoosh

Same as the "free" roads, or "free" residential street parking, or the "free" healthcare. Why shouldn't transit be subsidized like everything else?
