Oh great, I get to pay $5 now for a piece of recycled paper I could easily lose and not be able to recoup. Doubtful that busses will start to come on time now even with all of this extra money. How much do the driver's made again to not do their jobs right?? Absolutely ridiculous and unfair in so many ways.

With current minimum wage, the bus prices are much too high. Many days I have trouble deciding whether to bus or walk the 2-hour round trip to work.

I was hoping buses would become a compelling alternative to using cars in Victoria. Like in some European cities this would reduce pollution and cost. These changes reek of profitability. Come on...the transfers were a fantastic bonus to paying already high prices. As for the other changes they only make financial life harder for the people who already take buses. Those are the people, for the most part, who already struggle financially.

I used the year long bus pas every year to get to any from school. I do not think the new System is fair at all

This is ridiculous. Maybe Bc transit drivers would be treated with more respect if the company stopped making these stupid changes.

Thousands of students as well as people who just like to car pool will have to re-work their budgets and this will hurt the community entirely... This needs to be argued with.

I totally agree since students, especially high school depend on buses since they live far away from school or they can't get rides from parents

Please bring back affordable bus "service ". because a lot of people are stuck and have no other option but to take the bus. everyone deserves to be able to get around in their city. AND what about trying to get cars off the road and people take transit. !! your going about it the wrong way. This should not be a "for profit" business,its a service.

Two boys, two buses to get home from school (they get a drive in the morning) = $10/day, 3+x increase! We're using a second car now to save money - crazy! Bad for environment, traffic

I am frustrated with my children no longer being able to get the discounted multi month pass. The multimonth pass was convenient and cost effective for families.
Lets get this done
