    Ontario's move to give transportation minister power to set fares has advocates concerned | CBC News

    The Ontario government is looking to give itself the power to set transit fares across the province, a move some in Toronto are celebrating as a step towards a more integrated transit system in the GTA — while others are apprehensive about what the move could mean for the TTC.

      @hewer_of_code They aren't.

      This is the first step to de-funding public transit and making riders pay 100% of the cost (while private motoring remain subsidized)

        @evdelen My thought was that they would set fares that would be too low for certain municipalities, and when it brings some transit agency to the breaking point, they would use that as an excuse to take control of the agency, like they've done with school boards.
