Advocates in Ottawa are calling for a nationally funded transit service after Greyhound announces it is shutting down all routes across Canada.
The shutdown of Greyhound bus routes across Canada has left people without affordable transit according to anti-poverty and student advocates in Ottawa, even as another company adds routes west of the city.
Some in Ottawa say that leaves a significant gap in mobility for those who need it most.
"It's quite unfortunate," said Emilly Renaud, the national co-ordinator for Canada Without Poverty, a non-profit anti-poverty organization based in Ottawa.
