That's how it works in the GTA, and how it would work here if we used Presto. The system recognizes the transfer, and discounts from the GO ticket.
Other posters are correct for how it works now, where you show your Presto card and ride for free. The discount only applies to train trips, so there was a plan at some point to install a device at the train station which you had to tap your EasyGo card to for a refund (and which presumably would cancel your transfer, to ensure you can't go any further on GRT). But in a world with 2WAD GO, that would basically make any trip to that area of DTK free for anyone willing to go tap there. Us adopting Presto is the only way to do it without fraud risk.
