So it finally opens today.

Anyone going for a free ride this afternoon?

You thoughts on the whole thing?

I'm pretty happy as I only live a few block from one of the stations. No more driving to downtown or to the airport.

pretty stoked. my office is right at the yaletown station, was gonna hop on today but there is a big line, i may go to the airport's food court for lunch tomorrow. or maybe a movie at oakridge, the possibilities are limitless

this space is intentionally blank, other than this note about it being blank.

Airporter toast, yah.

Cabbies though? I doubt you'll see a lot of high rollers on the Canada Line.

too bad about the 1 free day thing.
if it were free for a week or 2, or even a month, people would get used to riding it, and then they can see if it's easier.
it would of been a neat trial on ridership number. however you'd have to pay for transfers, ect, so it's not a perfect system

I like Canada and I like lines. So obviously when the two are put together it's great.
