Posters

The most important way you can spread the word about building better Rapid Transit in Toronto is by printing out and distributing posters, flyers and postcards. We have a few here and new ones appearing soon – if you have an idea for a new one, send it along!

NEW! Confused about light rail? Here are two Fact Check flyers that explain the differences. One includes Scarborough details and a map to help display the differences.

Next, we have a two-sided flyer that helps explain the differences between the Metrolinx modern light rail plan – the Council-approved LRT plan – and the Mayor’s wasteful underground-only idea. Click to download the PDF – print and share!

This poster is based on one originally created by TEA/TTCRiders.ca, and is used with permission.

We also have earlier versions of the same flyer. Download the previous Smart Use Of Space flyer.

We also have some beautiful postcards designed by Twitterer @kett4l, showcasing beautiful and successful LRT systems in Seattle, Paris, Minneapolis, Houston, and Dublin.

From the archives, we also have a city-wide Save Transit City poster, suitable for posting and handing out around the city, which emphasizes the $65 million that would have been wasted by cancelling work already in progress. Council’s vote on February 8th 2012 helped make this far less likely.

We also have a Sheppard and Finch-specific Save Transit City poster, which contains the same information as the City-Wide poster but emphasizes the service those routes would never have gotten under Ford’s approach.If you’re interested in contributing new posters, please e-mail us!

LEARN about Light Rail and why it's way better than streetcars and only costs about half as much as subways - a great city-building choice for the lower-density neighbourhoods in Etobicoke, Scarborough, and North York.

CALL your City Councillor, and tell them that you want rational, affordable, and rapid transit in Toronto to benefit everyone, not just one small section of the city. Transit City would bring rapid transit to Finch, Malvern, Morningside - all areas ignored by the Mayor's preferred approach.

TELL your friends and family that subways are amazing - they really are! - but with limited funding for the first phase of expansion, building only underground will leave tens of thousands of people on Finch, Sheppard, and Eglinton West waiting for crowded buses for decades longer.

Did you know: The bus routes on Finch have over 85% of the ridership of the (much shorter) Sheppard Subway, and the bus routes on Eglinton already have over 140%! The lengths differ but the need is common in many areas of the city.
