Any #ZeroFareTransit is better than none, but if Saunders's five-hour ZFT window is implemented then it'll probably mean the end of more meaningful (and useful) #FareFreeTransit campaigns.

I took the bus to go to #KWVegfest today. Had the most expensive Mac'n'Cheese ever. (But it was good! Mmm, #Sambal!) Then took the #LRT to Willow River Park, stopped at #FullCircleFoods to stock up on cashews, turmeric, rosemary, ginger.
I wouldn't have made any of these purchases without #ZeroFareTransit - I'd have stayed home, had KD, and done without nuts & spices.
So the loss of a $3.50 fare gained some $75 in local commerce. #FareFreeTransit is good for the economy!

Adding a #ZeroFareTransit hashtag to the replies, because that will remove any profit motive in #PublicTransit
#zerofaretransit #publictransit
Tagging with #ZeroFareTransit and #FareFreeTransit (although that post's reach has been quite extensive without them)
#zerofaretransit #farefreetransit
Now that (police #Surveillance of license plates) gives a whole new use case for #PublicTransit.
#ZeroFareTransit, of course. None of these surveillance-enabled farecards. Makes me wonder if the surveillance capability of farecards is one of the points of resistance to #FareFreeTransit...

@cedar Yo. #ZeroFareTransit advocate here (and transit rider), also a #FairWeatherCyclist. In #WaterlooRegion, #Ontario. It just started to snow here yesterday, so time to bring in the bike until spring. But with the November we had, it's the latest time of year I've been out! (Except that time I left the bike out all winter)

@bradfitz @rysiek I've been a big fan of #ZeroFareTransit for years! And "Zero Fare" to head off those critics who try to tell me "Nothing is free" and "It'll raise taxes". Also #FareFreeTransit
I'd effuse more, but my #Twidere app doesn't support CWs (for #Politics )
