It always was a band-aid solution, but somewhat necessary to develop a growing suburban ridership.
Now, with @Uber pocketing the benefits, can @townofinnisfil even begin to transition to functioning public transit system that the community deserves? Also, to all the Uber haters, let me just say:

It's hard to say no to ride-hailing services in the first place when you don't have the numbers or interest to back up consistent transit.

Especially when the services rely on changing long-held community habits.

Went to vote today in the advance polls for #KingTownship today. Hadn't received my registration card in the mail but I went anyhow because #democracy.

I had some questions too. Upon arriving, I was told that I wasn't registered for #municipal voting, and that it was up to me to make sure that I was registered for every election.

So I filled out my document and registered at the polls. Then I voted, as you do.
