It's the easiest protest you've never attended.

Are you tired of fare hikes? Sick of being asked to bear the burden of the TTC's costs? Fed up with poor service and bad attitudes?

Don't take the TTC on Friday, November 13th, 2009. Not to work, not to the bars, not home. Be conspicuous by your absence! Show the TTC that without us, there'd be no better way.

***Stay tuned for possible discounts, and other options.***
