  1. POLL: The last time you bought 10 tokens from the #TTC, how many did you hoard? http://twtpoll.com/vyachv (pls RT)
  2. .@bradTTC Can you send me the background at how TTC is arriving at its conclusions RE: hoarding, token shortage, and fare loss?
  3. Good grief RT @nowtoronto: Line up for tokens at Bloor is stretching out the door. http://twitpic.com/qotyf
  4. .@shawnmicallef @Spacing Actually it's the other way around, you can redeem Airmiles for Metropass, not earn.
  5. @JProskowGlobal Is it a blowtorch to cut through turnstiles and automatic fare gates?
  6. There are so many things said by @Adam_Giambrone in this article that doesn't make any sense at all. http://is.gd/51XlN #ttc
  7. @davidakin Curious what would happen if the press stopped showing up for these photo ops. Would the media have the balls?
  8. BLOG: Total TTC Fare Foolery - numbers in today's Globe article just do not add up: http://is.gd/51TUS
  9. RT @SpongeRobbie: No TTC tickets as Islington Station, TTC Attendant didn't even know about them...
  10. @miroslavglavic MDP delivery by mail -- Got my Dec. Metropass in the mail last week.
  11. TTC should adopt a Donate-a-Ride program like Edmonton's to soften blow of fare hike to those in need: http://is.gd/51t0p
  12. As I'm doing this Best Practices review for TOD in North America, the more I see us lagging behind the United States on this.
  13. RT @aidennnn: got 25 ttc tokens in 4 hours at one block: metro store, subway stn, 711, metro again, station again.
  14. This TTC fare mess got me to write my first blog post in a year. On the current TTC fare fiasco: http://is.gd/51qxO #fb
  15. The TTC has a total supply of 40-million tokens: http://is.gd/51pR8. This still means 1 of every 2 tokens being hoarded for 'maximum loss'.
  16. CORRECTION: Error in prev. tweet. The 20M tokens was in addition to an initial supply (which I'm trying to figure out). (h/t @anthonyschein)
  17. @anthonyschein Crap, you're right. I misread the date as 2006. I can't believe that many tokens are actually in circulation though.
  18. @anthonyschein Bimetal tokens introduced in 2006, tickets eliminated last fall.
  19. @anthonyschein Yes, but the old tokens do not work anymore and are not accepted as valid fare
  20. TTC Commission Report from June 2006 meeting authorizing procurement of 20 million bi-metal tokens: http://is.gd/51pgS
