I have had lots of comments about how well the entire transit system is working and even though the system is very busy, everybody has been very patient and in good spirits. I even had O Canada spontaneously break out on my bus. Even when I ask if there's more room on the bus to fit a few more, I get a very cheerful "sure, we can make some more room". On that note, I want to thank all of our riders for being patient and for helping each other. As an operator for CMBC, I am having a great time getting everybody to where they need to go.

I take that back. Translink is doing a fantastic job. Way to go. Earlier I said I was concerned that the Transit plan was inadequate. I take that back. Translink is doing a fantastic job. Way to go.
