Should the government increase spending on public transportation?

Yes, as long as transit is made to be more affordable.

It depends, but I think it should follow how the US does it when it comes to ensuring that people are paid properly because if we make people pay more, then it deters people but if things are made to be efficient, then people wouldn't mind paying more because it saves them time, but the main issue is putting that into action, so a temporary solution would be to update infrastructure by making old systems have proper network connections in the case of Japan's strategy and allowing people to spend an amount based on what's less expensive, instead of constantly raising taxes because of inflation, though I don't understand the question.

No. It's gonna be used for money laundering by the politicians. Deport the illegals, tighter immigration, and spend on infrastructure and it should be fixed.

No, we should ensure that money is being used based on project progress. We can't just throw away money at a prolonged project taking place over 10 years

More efficient public transportation. Faster/ cheaper options would alleviate the highway traffic congestion. Better rail options could get trucks off the roads. Highways for trucks or time restrictions (especially in the GTAA area. High speed train/ tunnel etc... We (in Canada, especially the Niagara-Toronto corridor) are desperately behind when comparing to the rest of the modern world. It's embarrassing!

Should the Ukraine president stops servicing of public transport however it needs with basics spending issues by Brazilian president blowout in based it cost current friendly solution is aren't ends

Yes for improving in specific areas like rural areas, or senior dense areas and making it eco friendly as well. Doesnt

No, public transportation in Canada is only for criminals and vagrants now. It's a health risk taking it.

Yes, however, these organizations should be held to meeting and driving innovation and more advanced solutions. Public private partnerships which allow for advancement of technology which allows Canadian companies to be competitive in international markets should be the goal.

Yes, there should be a larger focus on making it free, accessible, and environmentally friendly so more people use it

Yes but only if it truly works to decrease time commuting and eventually returns a profit for the government so people will be taxed less.

If there's room in the budget yes they should increase spending on public transit to get newer and more fuel efficient buses.

Should spend more on public transportation for people with disabilities, like services such as Handy-dart and training of taxi drivers to take passengers with mobility devices

yes, provide more buses to new areas where public transportation is unavailable. Provide more buses that go to colleges or universities.

I would like for there to be an increase in government but I do not think it is an urgent priority to focus on in terms of funding.

No, in my opinion the cost of public transportation should be included in taxes, since paying it independently is not profitable for all people.

Yes, but only if they truly improve the infrastructure by providing more public transportation options.

Inrease spending on public transportation and make pricing not for profit- just what's needed to allow it to pay for itself

Yes we need to focus more on canada wide public transportation like trains. And less on highways. Tmwe need to be more proactive instead of always trying to catch up with the current needs. Canada is so far behind when it come to effective public transportation

Amount of funding and to which projects is something that should be considered on a case by case basis by the people who understand the needs of that particular community

yes it should be changed the pricing of public transportation to better support everyone and also make it more healthy for the enviornment

I think they should make public transportation affordable because not everyone can afford it all the time and they should take the money they get from citizens and put it towards any issues the transportation may have or a charity that way it is going to a good cause.

Yes while providing incentives to have more people using public transportation and in so reducing emissions.

no but put an investment of winter tires on winter citys with transportation as well as not make the city vehicles electric as the emissions dont outlay the benefits

Yes, but only if it increases safety for the riders. No point in free transportation if the dangers are at the same level with no consequences.

Yes, if it leads to better, faster services and can link our country together well (i.e. high speed rail)

Taxes should be used more effective to increase public transportation. Example: reduce pricy public “art” and use funding for transit.

yes but for some transportation since most are already free, but the ones that aren't and are cost-effective should be lowered.

No, but I think the government should give tax breaks and incentives to private companies investing in public transportation

#1 Engaged Public Transportation

Yes, but the government should also do some retrospectives and preventative measures on reducing the cost per kilometre of track or new service

It depends, I think densification of cities and towns would make increased public transit more feasible in Canada. Until then public transport is not a great means of transportation.

Yes, by adding more routes and hours of service. We don't live in a 9-5 society anymore and our public transportation should reflect that

Yes, more free and efficient public transportation must be provided to reduce carbon emissions and efficiency in day-to-day life

depends on the distance where the traveler is going, so shorter distances cost more because you could just walk or ride a bike to your destination

This situation need a deeper analysis, For example now even though the government bought one fare system transit student passes are not considered for this which is bad for students relying public transport on everyday basis. Uniform plans should be implemented

Yes, with an effort to create affordable passenger trains that run across Canada, similar to InterRail in Europe.

Yes, but only if the province or city has a disparity in terms of the safeness and reliability of the public transport

Yes, and they should have more police officers and systems out in place to help people reach safety quickly enough rather than getting stabbed for no reason.

Yes, and drastically expand environmentally friendly transportation to remote areas in canada, at an affordable rate

yes and provide BOTH free, public and environmentally friendly solutions - this should not come from tax payer dollars

Some public buses are missing in Canada they never come to yhe bus stop as shown in the google map so i think you should spend money on buses more.

Keep the same funding, just be more efficient or hire people who will work better to build better roads.

They already spend enough money on public transportation and most of the income comes from the government itself in my opinion it should stay as it is.

Depending on what they use the money for. If they start using it for environmentally friendly transportation then no. But if it is used to create more highways, busses running on gas and to keep it all clean then yes.

Yes, but with hightened accountability and in conjunction with other infrastructure programs for achieving a long-term state, and that has to be defined.

Certain cities with lots of sprawl need to be designed differently before public transport can become a viable option and therefore so it can be worth the extra funding

We should build train tracks to open up the Country. Rail transport should take priority over road transportation

I think the opposite. No child should be needing to pay for transportation unless we're old enough to get a G1 at the moment,

No, where this is an environmentally friendly solution, the constructions or railway, bus stops, and street cars are crowding areas of Canada.

Yes, and audit to ensure money is spent according to approved capital expansion programs and or documented operational needs

The government if they had extra money after upgrading infrastructure they should put it into public transport

We should take funds from some of the public transportation and put it towards à environmentally friendly one instead

We should target public transit for communities that need it most such as expanding into rural areas

public transportation only works if there is adequate parking for the people who need to get there and use it...

I think if they could spend money on making it more environmentally friendly they should but i also think there are more important issues that we could use that money towards.

Public transportation should be built in the form of subways. All of this investment in above ground transit, is wasteful and causes more traffic, congestion and pollution.

yes but only if it is making the current system better. For example i would not spend more money on the LRT until they get the current problems fixed.

Yes, but only towards environmentally friendly solutions and prioritise transportation needs for the physically disabled to encourage physically able people to get their exercise and to save it for those who need it.

Public transport spending should be increased and cost as well as incentives for use of of public transport should be the responsibility of the municipality for within cities, provincial for within provinces/territories and federal between provinces/territories.

absolutely, the candian government should be spending much more on public transportation, especially on the LRT in ottawa, its not doing well right now.

Yes but make sure the money is used effectivly

Yes, provided the costs are put towards improvement and do not fall to the consumer

Yes, but only if the spending goes to be more efficient and effective transportation, improving the different transport systems in cities that need it the most.

Yes, and provide more free public transportation, as well as if the spending goes towards environmentally friendly solutions

Regardless there should not only be more free public transportation but also there should be more focus on other important issues.

Environmentally friendly and affordable public transport, but focus on other things if needed.

Yes, and provide more free public transportation, as well as make the spending going towards environmentally friendly solutions.

Yes, should increase spending on developing public transportation's technology

No, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending and recommend more free public transportation

No, unless the government builds bullet trains from Windsor to Quebec City.

Yes, and use it to make public transportation safer to use.

they should fund better security for the transit

No, but there are some ways they could improve public transportation.

Only to increase the performance of it

Yes, everything except the light rail.

sure, to a point

Yes, increase spending on trains specifically

yes and less stinky busses also translink add compass card to apple pay pls

Municipal governments should provide public transportation

Yes, and lock put private entities; TTC and GO are enough evidence that the private sector needs to stay out of public transit.

They need to start/ fix everything that is wrong first then add new ways for efficient transportation and travel

Spending should be adjusted as necessary per city and the investment should have significant returns.

Yes, however I think the focus should be on things like public bikes and scooters, rather than buses and trains for a healthier Canada.

Better spending based on usage. Why are we building a route to Langley before ubc!? Transit should be run more like a business and help those who use it most

Yes, but this is a municipal issue, and we should have better public transportation and city planning, as well as finding environmentally friendly solutions

No, sooner or later the price will rise again thus making it MORE difficult to pay for PUBLIC transportation.

They should not allow cities to build so many high rises when the infrastructure can’t support it (aka, Toronto)

I think they should, but the government should also start incentivizing private companies to help the transition to green energy powered vehicles instead of paying for it all by themselves

I am in between certain places have better transport than others so possibly focusing funding on long distance or less accessible locations have the funding more focused on it. And if requires funding should be added.

Yes however the public transportation provided should be free and should take environmentally friendly solutions into account.

Yes, and provide more free public transportation which also has spending going towards more environmentally friendly solutions.

yes. public transportation should be free. people want cars, they should pay tolls to use all roads. Having a car is a luxury.

It really depends because yes we can have more public transit like rentable e bikes and scooters but we already have buses and bikes so why waste the money when it could go to housing

Yes. Provide more free public transportation and spend money towards environmentally friendly solutions.

spending should be higher as distance decreases until you want to go outside the city in order to encourage private transportation

It should have some funding to provide transit for people without a car and to keep the transit working and tidy but it should be moderate spending just to keep them working Properly.

Yes, and implement taxes/tolls on those who wish to drive for their convenience instead of using public transit in high traffic areas.

Yes, and provide free public transport for youth and seniors, and spending should go to environment-friendly solutions

Lower the cost of public transportation services. As most single parents can't provide enough money for their children over 13
