“We used to have a world-class transit system we could be proud of, but years of unreliable and inadequate funding has left Toronto with an overcrowded, unreliable public transit system,” says TTCriders spokesperson, Suhail Barot.
TTCriders is calling on the federal government to provide Toronto with permanent and fair funding so Toronto’s 1.8 million riders get better service now, lower fares, and smart sensible new public transit lines that actually get built.
TTCriders is organizing a Day of Action on Monday September 14 where TTCriders members will talk to transit riders across Toronto about what the parties say they’ll do to fix public transit.
TTCriders will also be encouraging Toronto’s 1.8 million transit riders and its 11,000 supporters to vote, volunteer, and donate to federal candidates with the best plan to improve public transit.
“Torontonians have been ignored by the federal government for too long,” says Jessica Bell, spokesperson for TTCriders. “It’s time riders vote, volunteered, and donated for a political party that will truly improve service now and into the future.”
Here is the survey TTCriders is sending to the political parties.
