Petition to the Government of Canada
- Affordable public transit is essential to the livelihoods of many Canadians, especially those on low or fixed incomes like students and seniors;
- Increased use of public transit reduces the number of cars on the roads, thereby reducing air pollution and traffic congestion; and
- Fostering the regular use of public transit among youth will lead to its further use in the future.
