Breaking: #TTC discounts for people receiving OW, ODSP, and Child Care Fee Subsidy set to resume in December 2020. But the Fair Pass won't be fully funded in 2021 as promised. https://t.co/oFBOLsit9Q

The City of Toronto quietly stopped processing applications to the Fair Pass #TTC discount program in March. Sign the open letter & get involved: https://t.co/VgzRpoP6b0

City staff will report about the future of the program on November 12, 2020.

Did you get a call from us last night? Join our phone team to reach more transit users about how to take action to keep local bus stops on Eglinton East and protect the Fair Pass discount program: https://t.co/kx4cVpVmuC

[TTCriders @ttcriders]

UPDATE! One of the supporters we called who lives near Torrance & Eglinton East informed us their local bus stop will stay because residents spoke out. Contact [email protected] to get connected with transit riders near you.

No fare loaded, but no-cost PRESTO cards are now available at select @torontolibrary locations while supplies last! #TTC #TOpoli https://t.co/AqzyTU4D35

[Climate Justice Toronto @CJusticeTO]

Not to simp too hard for Toronto City Council but this is friggen sweet and long overdue

[TTCriders @ttcriders]

If farebox revenue isn't replaced, "a downward spiral is almost inevitable. It will begin with service cuts. As riders are made to wait longer & vehicles grow more crowded, transit will become less convenient & perceptions of unsafety will grow." @fordnation @JohnTory #fundthettc

[TTCriders @ttcriders]

We brought the Covid-19 bus to @VijayThaniMPP office to demand more transit funding to fix bus crowding #ttc #topoli

[TTCriders @ttcriders]

Transit riders, students and parents in #Scarborough are demanding 100% #ttc service before school starts and permanent provincial funding without privatization strings attached. @JohnTory @fordnation
