Why don't they hold water? You are looking at the undergrad population of both WLU (16,000 undergrad) + UW (30,000 undergrad) compared to Conestoga (12,000 fulltime). So there's 3 times the buying power right there.
Conestoga is in the middle of nowhere. The only transit in the area is used by students going to/from the college. The majority of the service updates will only serve the student population. Where the routes servicing the universities (especially WLU) would be there regardless, albeit not as heavily used.
What ulterior reasoning would GRT have for attempting to charge more for the passes? They could be trying to get as much money as possible out of the College students before it won't pass, but that's just how these things work.
