Why the TTC should be free?

The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) should be free to promote greater accessibility and equity, allowing all residents, regardless of income, to benefit from public transportation. Free transit can lead to increased ridership, reducing traffic congestion and lowering greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to a more sustainable urban environment. Additionally, eliminating fares can streamline operations by reducing the need for fare collection systems, allowing for more efficient service delivery and improved overall rider experience.
