These students from SFU’s School of Contemporary Arts love transit because it gets them to dance. Stay tuned for our “I Love Transit” video!

I Love Transit is upon us! It’s the one week we take out of the year to celebrate what we love about transit.

We want you to tell us why you love transit! 

Write an essay, snap a photo, shoot a video, write a Haiku, draw a picture, perform a song, or however you want to show transit some love then share that on social media with our hashtag, #ILoveTransit.

You can also email them to thebuzzer@translink.ca and we might feature it on our blog during the week.

Feeling lucky? Why not enter the the I Love Transit contest?!

Step 1. Figure out why you love transit.

Step 2. Tell us and you’re entered to win a Monthly Pass on your Compass Card! It’s that simple!

Read on for all the details.

How do I enter?

Twitter

Hey @TransLink, #ILoveTransit because…

  • Be sure to include the correct #ILoveTransit hashtag and complete the sentence to be entered
  • Accounts must be public to participate

Instagram

  • Follow @TransLinkBC and post a selfie on transit or a great photo from anywhere across the system with a caption that includes and completes this sentence:

Hey @TransLinkBC, #ILoveTransit because…

  • Please note that we’re @TransLinkBC on Instagram, not @TransLink—that’s somebody else’s account!

  • Accounts must be public to participate

The Buzzer blog

I love transit because…

Rules

Check out the I Love Transit 2018 contest terms and conditions, but here’s the lowdown:

  • The Contest will open on September 25, 2018 and all entries must be received by 11:59 p.m. on October 5, 2018. Late entries will not be considered.
  • One entry per channel, per person so make it count! You can enter up to three times in total.
  • The Monthly Pass will be for one, two, or three zones, depending on where the winner travels.
  • We’ll announce the winners from a random draw on the blog, Twitter and Instagram!
  • To be fair to everyone, one person cannot win all three draws. So, if we draw your name for one of the channels, you will be excluded from the other two Monthly Pass draws.

Photos may be used in the print edition of The Buzzer, the Buzzer blog, tweeted by @TransLink, posted on the TransLink Facebook page and @TransLinkBC Instagram account.

Entries from last year

Good luck!
