*** CALLING ALL BUS RIDERS AND ALLIES ***
Join the BUS RIDERS UNION in building our demand to restore the Night
Owl buses. For night workers, youth and students, women and other
transit dependent people, around the clock bus service is essential for
our economic wellbeing, our safety and our basic right to mobility. As
part of our strategy to Defend and Expand Public Services and to End
Transit Racism, the BRU is mounting a massive campaign to pressure the
Greater Vancouver Transit Authority (a.k.a. TransLink) to restore the
Night Owl Buses Now!
Please join us for
LATE NIGHT ORGANIZING ON THE STREETS OF DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER
On Thursday, June 5th, BRU organizers and our friends and allies will be
walking the streets of downtown seeking out those people who have been
negatively impacted by the lack of late night bus service in this
region. We'll be talking with folks getting on and off the buses,
workers on their way to work and at their jobsites where we can, and
others who are suffering under the TransLink imposed curfew on bus
riders. We'll be encouraging working class and marginalized people to
attend our June 12th public meeting on the Night Owl cuts and upcoming
TransLink meetings where the BRU will be taking direct action press our
demand for Night Owl Buses Now.
On Thursday, June 5th
Meet at the main entrance of Granville Skytrain Station at 10 pm
Join the Campaign for MORE BUSES! LOWER FARES!
