The Amalgamated Transit Union of Canada has a news conference scheduled for tomorrow morning (thurs) in Ottawa, where they will demand the Federal Government address Greyhound shutting down operations in Western Canada. Greyhound Canada announced that it’s cutting its passenger and delivery services by the end of October, on the prairies, in northwestern Ontario, and rural British Columbia with the exception of one route that will continue to run between Vancouver and Seattle. The ATU wants a meeting with Transport Minister Marc Garneau to talk about solutions to a service that the union says is critical to working people. President John Di Nino says tens of thousands of riders depend on Greyhound to get to the doctor, work, school and other services.
