Social Justice in Transit: Free Transit Toronto

Interesting Article on Free Transit in Toronto

Social Justice in Transit? Here is a article posting regarding having free Transit in Toronto. Not only because of it's impact in reducing traffic congestion in our city, but also increasing the mobility of those whom cannot afford transit costs. For the writers of this article there is social justice in having a free Transit System in Toronto.


Transit is a critical issue for people in Toronto, as in all major urban areas. More is at stake than reducing traffic congestion and gridlock. Transit and general mobility are intimately related to larger issues in capitalist society: how goods and services are produced and delivered; the location of and nature of jobs; where and how we live and travel; issues of class, inequality and oppression related to race, age, gender, and sexuality; climate justice; and the very shape and nature of our democratic institutions.
