With the election of the Tory mayoralty campaign, and the rather ominous vote for Ford in the inner suburban areas, a number of us thought it would be an opportune time for stock taking in the growing public transit movement in Toronto. The Free and Accessible Transit Campaign of the Greater Toronto Workers’ Assembly and TTCriders are jointly organizing a public forum on these issues, inviting partners in the public transit movement and people generally interested in fighting for better, more affordable and accessible public transit.
