Getting to Pearson

[tomh009]

The original intent of the law was that operators would get exclusive access to certain routes (which were profitable) on the promise they would run other routes (not as profitable), and the two aspects would balance out. Over time, though, operators have found excuses to gradually drop the unprofitable routes anyway and the province has allowed it, so the whole idea of the law is getting murky, that's true.

This is crazy level of regulation in today's world.

If there are some unprofitable rural routes that need to be maintained, provide a subsidy for those routes and let other routes be competed on freely.
