On Monday, the 25th of November, the Transit Commission met to discuss the budget, which was carried to City Council with some amendments.
On the 13th of November, the City of Ottawa released its draft budget for 2025. The full Transit budget book can be found as a PDF here. A number of factors, especially a fare increase, caused outrage, leading to a strong public response. I'll be summarizing it in this article. I'll leave timestamps for different parts of the meeting, which can be found in this YouTube video.
