No Fares!
This series by Dave Olsen, funded by readers who donated to The Tyee Fellowship for Solutions-oriented Reporting, takes a hard look at fare hikes and spending priorities by B.C.'s transit planners, as well as rising greenhouse emissions and pollution by the private automobile, and asks: Why are we creating any barriers for people who might take public transit? Olsen seeks a solution by travelling to Whidbey Island in Washington State and a Belgian big city to explore wholly tax-supported systems that don't charge riders. He finds them more efficient, civil and well-used than ours.
