Know anyone who might want a PT Job with Vancouver Transit?

The same with Maryland/DC/Virginia where I used to be. You just buy a card that you can use on bus and train. The initial purchase of it is $10.00 and then you top it up to the amount of your choice. Some people actually put $500.00 worth in it. I've seen it done. Back there, we call it the SmarTrip card. You can register it online and manage it, top it up online too with the payment method of your choice.

That is better than Vancouver..



Public transit there is expensive and so is gasoline.

Vancouver is a rip off. Most overrated city I've ever seen.

Vancouver's transit is very expensive.

Is there a card thing in Calgary like the one in Maryland/DC/Viriginia that can hold more than $3.40?

They should be amalgamated like Toronto's transit service which is bigger than Vancouver's..



You can can transfer freely anywhere in the country's largest city between street cars, buses, Handy buses, the RT, and subway lines at any time of day or night and for a lower price than Vancouver.

I have never been on transit in any other city in Canada besides Vancouver. It is expensive here. Much cheaper in Israel.

I haven't been there in a while, but I believe the train goes to the zoo and dinosaur park.

If someone still lives with their parents, is semi retired or has a spouse working full time, it might be what they want..



A full time job doesn't fit every walk of life.
