I mean, this seems like the trains are poorly maintained, and worse, difficult to inspect. I wonder if there are comparable standards with our trains.
Either way, the article discusses in detail:

According to wikipedia, OC Transpo operates the o-trains. I don't know if that includes maintenance, but if it does then no surprise here. They run the absolute most dysfunctional transit system I've had the displeasure of using (or not using, since half the buses on the schedule aren't real).
