The low-income transit pass is one of those programs that is a no-brainer to fund. It provides such a huge amount of benefit and service at a relatively low cost. It's the kind of program fiscally responsible governments champion.

A couple of years ago, I thought half the seats in parliament should have new reps. Then it was 2/3, then 3/4, then 4/5, 5/6, 6/7... can these jackwagons fix themselves before we get to 99/100?
Tempting, but all that hot air on an ice sheet would lead to a catastrophic seal level rise. Plan B?

I admired Calgary's low income transit pass - it helped with access to transportation while those who could pay full freight (like me or @nenshi) did, to keep the system healthy. Scrapping it is cruel.

What everyone younger than Gen X doesn't know is how deeply bored we were a lot of the time, even at things like this. Every Gen Xer has read at least 1000 cereal boxes and shampoo bottle labels beginning to end out of boredom. And that is literally not an exaggeration.

You don't come back from shooting a dog. An old or rabid one maybe, but a puppy who you find inconvenient? You could cure cancer and solve the Israel/Palestine thing and you'll still be the one who bragged about shooting a dog.

Uh, whoa....? While this poll's questions jump around, anything that shows the BC Cons and NDP tied should set off alarm balls at NDP HQ. Rustad might stumble in the campaign, but that's not a plan.

Polite, indeed. The show’s producer emailed me and my coauthors in advance asking for questions on immigration to pose to the PM. We offered two hard balls. Neither was asked.

I covered a lot of council mtgs and I still remember this one. The low income transit pass means people living in extreme poverty can take the bus for $5 a month. They can get to appointments, classes & the grocery store. It's a lifeline. #yyccc calgaryherald.com/news/traffic/c…
@SkaraBraeRanch @gill_godwin @liberal_party @JustinTrudeau @RachelNotley @christyclarkbc It's not complicated. The BC NDP deliberately frustrated the proponent to placate the Green Party -- its minority partner. The feds rescued it, with plenty of encouragement coming from Ms. Notley. Ms. Clark was a non-factor here. She resigned before this went down.
@moebius_strip Does worrying whether the print shop provided enough copies count?
Well by gum I think I'll go to Jasper! Whoops! That discount "is not valid or does not meet the necessary conditions." So it costs $1,318, one way, for a bunk. Minus 40% it's still $790. And massively taxpayer-subsidized. And it takes a month.

What everyone younger than Gen X doesn't know is how deeply bored we were a lot of the time, even at things like this. Every Gen Xer has read at least 1000 cereal boxes and shampoo bottle labels beginning to end out of boredom. And that is literally not an exaggeration.
