Join the May 28th day of action for emergency transit funding!
Essential workers — like nurses, doctors, sanitation staff and many more — rely on transit to get to work.
But public transit systems across Canada are facing service cuts and driver layoffs, because they depend mostly on fares for funding. Right now we need more service, not less, for safe physical distancing on transit!
Join Transit Action Alliance of Guelph and organizations across Canada for the national day of action and share why public transit is important to you! Here’s how you can join in:
