super fun day. even with the unfortunate loss of Colombia. The Plaza crowd erupted on Colombias last penalty goal, and then fell silent with a few Swiss fans cheering. 😢
If Colombia had won the whole city would have been partying. The number of yellow shirts and jerseys was crazy!!

Why do Transit planners in Canada make transit worse and then expect to be congratulated?
I’ve ridden buses, in whole or part, to work for most of the past 25 years. In that same period, the bus system has doubled the amount of time it takes to get to work.
Labour Day is when the new schedules come out, so I have tracked them all the way back to 2000.
I gave up on the bus from Qualicum after the pandemic. And this year the schedule is so bad and so long that I might give up completely on getting the bus from Parksville. I’ll probably still go to Woodgrove sometimes but I am tempted to cancel my bus pass.
I used to be able to get to Qualicum at 6:20 or Parksville at 6:45 and be at work by 7:35. Now I have to be in Qualicum by 6:00 or Parksville by 6:22 to get to work by 7:54.
It’s so frustrating. I hate driving all the way in but driving for 1 hour versus taking 3 hours by using a bus part way is just not a reasonable trade.
We need proper commuter transit on Vancouver Island.
