It would be exactly like the zone system we have now. The bus ticket is 1 zone, so when you hop onto a Skytrain that requires 2 zones, you pay a small additional fee to bump your ticket up to 2 zones.

At least, that's what I'd expect.

i am leaning towards everything as a one zone fare.

That would make sense but with Translink you just don't know what to expect.

SkyTrain Expo Line fire shuts down service

This have to happen during rush hour......
sigh.

Lol translink.
Nuff said.

sweet, all transit modes are free today

:fuckthatshit:

Monthly bus pass :okay:

#49 bus is jammed pack. Shiet...

Damn didn't know about this. Guess I'll save a faresaver on my way back. :toot:

translink has been full of fails the last two days

Also no taxis available too.

Where's Uber or Lyft when you need them???? Ohh that's right, our politicians won't allow them here. :rukidding:

Bikes, man. You're supposed to ride bikes like our hipster mayor! :fuckthatshit:

Just the last two days? :suspicious:

LOL

fixed for you.

On the translink website they said they will make it up to the monthly pass holders as well.

I'm assuming a discount on next month's pass if you own a current pass.

how dare they not anticipate a bird's nest catching on fire.

Free transit on Wednesday, July 1 as make up .

:lawl:
That doesn't benefit since I buy month pass every month...

sounds like they should just keep the payment system as is. We could have saved millions

you're thinking rationally, now why would Translink go and do that?

well it could be worst.........like oh i dont know? how about flooded train stations lol

Because people kept bitching how someone they know got a free ride without paying. You can't have it both ways, much like Transit cops.

Writing laws is always cheap.. the expensive part is enforcement.. that's why Conservatives are writing laws but cutting back in environmental, taxes etc.

Come on guys, it's only going to cost you an extra $250 on average a year to vote Yes. $250 a year to get this huge upside is worth it imo.

That Yes vote would go a long way. Yeah, translink fucked up. Well we gotta live with it. Jimmy Pattison is going to look after the finances, he was the single reason why I voted Yes.

If you've ever drove in rush hour, you should vote yes. We need the infrastructure and it has to come from somewhere.

Jimmy Pattison HAVE 0 POWER. He is only there to advise not to actually run the finances. So translink and the mayors could just say no to what he suggested and there is nothing he can do.

How about taxing big corps and business instead? Want to build apartments close to skytrains? Sure it will cost you more.

I rather spend that $250 and bet on Canucks winning the Stanely Cup every year. Canucks have a higher chance of winning the cup than translink will use money effectively.
