Still Waiting for the Bus: The Unnatural Death of Prairie Intercity Transit by ATU Canada published on 2019-10-07T07:17:26Z Take Action! Sign our pledge! https://www.atucanada.ca/pledge-support-national-public-intercity-transit-0 Throughout this 60-minute audio documentary, ATU Canada explores the impacts of losing the Saskatchewan Transportation Company and Greyhound on the Prairies. We also interrogate the idea that these services were no longer financially feasible to operate. We demand the establishment of a national public intercity transit service as part of a Green New Deal for social, economic and environmental justice and tangible reconciliation with Indigenous peoples. Share this documentary with friends, family and candidates running for office. Ask candidates where they stand on operational funding for public intercity transit.
