Public transportation in Canada is running very well, which is helping several residence and giving employment to many people, If the public transportation will be privatize then it may result in increase in fare and people will start buying car which will also increase pollution.

 @9FJ7H4Kfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Privatization will hurt the public because of increase of transit fares, rather than putting their interest in public citizens.

 @9FDMP7BPeople’sfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Government should increase their funding and servicing for the public transportation, that helps city and people's running life easily.

 @9FD7RC5from Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Public transportation shoiuld be an affordable form of transportation for people who cannot afford their own way of transport.

 @9H5LMMDfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

In major cities like Ottawa and Toronto thousands of people use public transit each and every day and by making more public you give people freedom and trust in the government.

 @9F9HZR2from Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

most people dont have money for privatiized transportation so just dont make it privatized cause it stupid

 @9F8N2JNfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

i think we shouldn't privatize more public transportation but rather increase the amount of transportation

 @9F7HYHJfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Public transportation is a public service and is required for a healthy, free, and capable population.

 @9F8CBYQfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

A growing nation like Canada needs an increase in infrastructure spending which includes public transportation. How else would you get more people to move from A to B if the number of buses or subway trains remain the same? An increase in public transportation spending will also boost the economy because now that people can easily move around, they can spread their spending towards places that normally don't get much foot traffic.

Public transportation should be done without holding a city hostage for 11 years! Allowing a Private company to do this means nothing is done with quality. We need quality people to build public transportation and stop being incompetent.

 @9FC85B8from Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

public transport is not profitable on it's own meaning that private companies will not invest in transit, however transit has great secondary economic benefits

 @9FB3GY3from Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Private transportation services primarily exist to generate profits, while public transportation's primary purpose should be to provide free and easily accessible transportation to everyone.

Private transportation services are often associated with reduced worker wages, diminished equipment maintenance, decreased accessibility, and a decline in overall quality.
These issues arise from the profit-driven nature of private transportation corporations, which prioritize maximizing their earnings. Consequently, they allocate fewer resources to provide fair wages to their employees, maintain their equipment, and keep transportation affordable for the public, thereby limiting its accessibility to the general population.

 @9FD56LKfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

What if privatized Public Transportation Systems, abuse the payment, time, and risk the lives of the passengers.

 @9GGP9XWfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

Public transportation is fine the way it is but if the buses keep running on only gas then the pollution will increase.
