Four ways to take action for better transit

 

The provincial budget day was just announced, and the timing couldn’t be better. The budget will be tabled the day after TTCriders’ Sardine Ride and Rally on March 27 to call for more provincial funding for the TTC. This is a key time to take action for better transit, because this is the last budget before the election.

4 WAYS TO TAKE ACTION FOR BETTER TRANSIT: 

1. Send a message to Kathleen Wynne to fairly fund the TTC. 

The TTC is the least-subsidized transit system in North America. It's time for Kathleen Wynne and our MPPs to fairly fund the TTC in the upcoming provincial budget, so riders get better service and lower fares.  

2. Join us at our Sardine Ride & Rally

Tuesday March 27, 11:30am-1pm. Take action for better service and lower fares! 

RSVP

3. Phone bank with TTCriders.

Tuesday March 13, 6:30pm-8:30pm at 720 Bathurst St. Help us invite as many transit riders as possible to the March 27 rally!

4. Provincial budget teach-in.

Wednesday March 14, 6:30pm-8:00pm, 720 Bathurst St. Come and learn about the transit issues at stake in the provincial budget.

RSVP

Want to help us reach more transit riders? Contact [email protected] if you would like to organize a canvass at your TTC stop or station before March 27. We'll set you up with flyers, petitions, training, and a buddy to go with.

📸 Rally to Open the Crosstown

On February 19, 2025, TTCriders held the Rally to Open the Crosstown at Yonge and Eglinton to call for answers about the Eglinton Crosstown and Finch West LRT projects. Promised opening dates for the LRTs have come and gone, while transit costs have skyrocketed under Metrolinx. Transit riders are looking for answers and credible opening dates for the Eglinton Crosstown and Finch West LRTs.
TTCriders asked every party to invest in running TTC service and new LRTs with a 50% operating subsidy for local transit systems, and to give the TTC back control over running Toronto transit, to keep costs down and increase accountability.
