A cartoon letter C appears at the top. An image of a busy highway with exaggerated "just one more lane bro" text appears below.

Slide 2: text reads: A is for taxation. It's time to tax the rich. The rich are getting richer while more Canadians struggle. Canada's 40 richest billionaires grew their wealth by nearly $95 billion dollars last year. A large cartoon letter A appears next to the text.

Slide 3: text reads: Did you know? If we stopped the wealthy from dodging taxes via tax havens, we would generate enough money to pay for free transit fares across the country. The wealthiest 1% in Canada pay less in taxes than the average Canadian (As a percentage of income). Below, an image of Jim Pattison alongside an alert box that reads: It would take a cashier at Save-On-Foods working minimum wage full time for 366,300 years to earn Jim Pattison’s net worth ($12 billion)

Slide 4: text reads: B is for Better imagination. Dreaming of a better future is the first step to making it come true. In a thought bubble below, text reads: Vienna dreamt up affordable social housing and made it a reality by taxing millionaires. Rent there is now half of that in similar cities. A large cartoon letter B accompanies the text above and and image of the rooftops in Vienna below.

People often ask us how we expect to fund fare-free public transit. The answer is as simple as A-B-C, really, and we've teamed up with @chcvictoriabc to share it with you all!
Next time someone asks you, just remember: TAX the rich! dream BIG! CARS suck! #yyj #transit #farefreebc

BC Transit launching Fare Awareness and Enforcement Program - BC Transit BC Transit is launching a new Fare Awareness and Enforcement Program to educate riders about fares, their payment options, and the importance of paying the correct fare.

How much will this cost in overtime and bus slowdowns? Has fare compliance dropped after the recent increase? We should be making the bus easier to take, not harder. #FareFreeBC #vtru www.bctransit.com/bc-transit-l...
