Fund it already! Provincial Budget Teach-in


March 14, 2018


What's holding up the Relief Line? When will the TTC get the funding it needs to fix overcrowding and long wait times?

Come and learn what's at stake for transit riders in the upcoming provincial budget, and find out about our plans for a March 27 action.

The 2018 provincial budget will be unveiled soon, with an election around the corner. TTCriders wants the province to restore TTC operating funding and to fund projects like the Relief Line and Sheppard East LRT.

TTCriders member Mike Sullivan will take us through some of these transit issues and explain TTCriders' demands.
