Last February, as usual, the Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority’s board of directors started its meeting by adopting the agenda and the last meeting’s minutes, and then hearing from delegations.
What wasn’t usual was one of the presenters: Henry Orsini, the nine-year-old son of a transit activist with B.E.S.T.. Orsini has launched a campaign for a 50-cent transit fare for kids. He designed a postcard illustrating how Vancouver’s fares stack up against other cities’; it’s a compelling case.
You can voice your support at his campaign e-mail address.
