Never participated in a twitter chat before? Here are some tips to help you join the fun!

What's a twitter chat?

A twitter chat is a public conversation on twitter that is convened at a specific day and time, using a unique hashtag (#). Twitter chats are often recurring weekly or monthly events, but you can also find one-off twitter chats like our #KingStreetPilot Tweet Chat.

How can I participate?

Log into your twitter account on Monday November 5th at 1pm and search the #KingStreetPilot hashtag.

By following #KingStreetPilot you'll be able to follow the conversation and jump in with your own answers, comments, and questions.  The host will pose a series of questions (designated by a Q1, Q2, Q3.. at the beginning of each tweet) to encourage discussion and prompt participants to answer (designated by A1, A2, A3...). You can also engage with other participants by replying to their tweets.

It can also help to use a chat platform that makes it easier to follow along. 

Here are some quick twitter chat conventions to follow:

1. Tweet a “high volume warning” for your followers. 2. Follow a Q1 (Question 1)/A1 (Answer 1) format. 3. Reply directly for 1-on-1 conversations. 4. Add "." when using @ at the beginning of your tweet. 5. Always include the #KingStreetPilot chat hashtag.

Letter & Survey: TTC must exchange expired tokens and tickets

Do you still have TTC tokens or paper senior/student tickets or day passes? The TTC has announced that they will stop accepting TTC tokens and paper tickets after December 31, 2024. But the TTC will not be issuing exchanges. This is unfair to people who have saved up tokens and tickets, especially low-income seniors. Gift cards and permanent stamps never expire --  why are transit fares any different?
