Dong fled to Thailand in 2015 with his wife and daughter, who were resettled to Canada as refugees. However, Thailand sent Dong back to China. After another stint in prison, he tried again to leave, finally making it to Vietnam in January 2020. “I was told by the Canadian government that they no longer have any news from Vietnamese officials about my father,” she said, trying to hold back tears.

Improving Canadian public transit systems through sustainable adoption of emerging technologies and servicesThe Government of Canada’s pledge to invest $14.9-billion in public transit over the next eight years is a unique opportunity for municipalities to improve their public transit systems, while focusing on increasing the user base, decreasing the carbon footprint, and providing equitable and inclusive access. Adopting emerging technologies and services has the potential to achieve these goals in a sustainable manner. On-demand public transit (ODT) is an emerging service that does not follow a fixed route and responds to the spatio-temporal changes in demand by adjusting the fleet size, route, pricing, and vehicle location. In recent years, fixed-price ODT has been successfully adopted to accommodate low ridership densities in several smaller Canadian municipalities, including Innisfil and Belleville in Ontario and Cochrane in Alberta. In some cases, on-demand public transit has shown great promise as a first and last mile access solution. Innisfil’s on-demand public transit is being used for access to the GO Transit regional train and bus network. ODT adopters have reported an improved level of service, increased ridership, and savings on infrastructure and operations cost. Investment from the federal government can encourage public transit agencies in large urban areas, including the Toronto Transit Commission to learn from these early adopters and consider hybrid solutions where the core of the system remains high-frequency fixed-route transit, and low ridership-density neighbourhoods that can be better served with ODT as a first and last mile access mode. For the sustainable adoption of ODT services, there is a strong need to develop open guidelines that Canadian municipalities can use in the planning, design, and operations phases. New passenger-specific key performance indicators need to be developed that consider variables like wait-times, detour-times, vehicle occupancy per kilometre travelled, and greenhouse gases emitted per passenger-kilometre.
