#BreakingNews The Government of Alberta is cutting funding for the Low Income Transit Pass.

"It is an insult to the lowest-income Calgarians who are already struggling to get by. This provincial government continues to burden big cities by walking away from their commitments. Rather than spend $6.2 million to help low-income Calgarians and seniors get around now, this provincial government would rather spend more time dreaming about private-public partnerships for trains decades from now" - Mayor @JyotiGondek 

According to the City of Calgary, more than 119,000 passes were issued through March of this year and the number of passes sold increased by 35 percent over last year.
