New Calgary transit fees.
A new $3 fee to park at park and ride lots.
Transit passes going up to $90.
Instead of the budgeted 18 additional transit cops, there will only be 9 (which apparently saves $950,000! Do these transit cops earn $100K+ per year?)

I'm sure those fees will entice people to leave their cars at home and take transit.
