I must say—and that's an excellent question—that I am always amazed at what's actually out there and what the needs are that we don't see on the surface.
I remember not long ago attending a municipalities association meeting in western Canada and talking to municipal councillors from small communities under 1,000 people about their mobility needs. At first glance, the answer was, “Well, we don't have public transit”. My next question was, “Well, how do people who can't drive get around?” They said, “Well, the seniors home has a van and the Lions Club has a van”. When I asked who paid for them, they said the municipality kicked in a few thousand and there were charitable donations. There was this, that, and the other thing.
So you do have public transit: it's just that nobody knows about it and we haven't done an inventory. I think that's where we need to start with the small communities. We need to find out what's there now and use the resources we have to broker those services to create a more universally accessible form of publicly available transportation, especially as our communities start to grow and the population ages, because people can't continue to rely on their friends and families to drive them everywhere.
