dewlineMy concern and complaint is that it is planned to make the usage of Presto in place of all other forms of bus pass and payment inescapable. As someone whose employment situation is Precarious at best (capitalization intended), I fear for my ability to pay for bus transit without needing access to the Internet at all times. I cannot and must not rely upon being able to afford such technologies, whether by desktop, laptop, tablet or "cleverphone".
Also, the paper bus pass as I have used it this past quarter-century allows for the chance that if lost, it can be returned directly to me via Canada Post. I am not convinced that the security of Presto is as valuable as this. I like the additional security of photo ID.
That you believe your plans too far along to be halted or dismantled now is understood. That your plans should not seek to go in this direction should be understood by those in charge at OC Transpo and at City Hall.
I intend to post this on my weblog "On the DEWLine" at Livejournal.
