Translink shouldn’t be privately owned. Government should kick the parasites out and make public transit bare minimum into a Crown corporation.

I don't disagree but TransLink is a top performing transit agency in North America and their governance has been pretty solid, so I'd focus the energy on lower hanging fruits like improving how the metro region and the province finance it more permanently for operating costs instead of just line expansions

Oh it's a partnership with a local brewery for a themed beer, not selling cold ones on board to crack open during your trip, which would have been way cooler but yeah, that makes more sense.

Patina does some good beer and bbq. Highly recommend if you're in port coquitlam.

Never been out of the US, was just scrolling past. Hell for that matter I haven't explored as much of my own country as my lifestyle would suggest. That being said I'll put a pin in that whenever it does come up.
