Toward the end of doing census work I was buying weekly passes because we were being sent to a wider zone of addresses, and even though I was walking 10 km or more a day, I sometimes just wanted to take a bus home from wherever I finished up. I didn’t know when they would wrap it up for us so I didn’t want to plunge for a monthly pass.
But this week is the last week, so I’m glad I didn’t buy a pass for all of August.
I recently moved back to the suburbs, and I don’t drive, so I find buses useful out here. (There are actually places in the West Island where bus service is halfway decent, and I”m lucky to live in one of those places.) And I feel safer taking public transit nowadays, when I’m fully vaccinated and many others also are.
