Can't remember who it was but they were asking about what the total cost of running the transit is. I found this information on the Calgary Transit website. So it looks like the annual cost is about $35.9 Million, not including new cars, station construction, etc.,
So if 250,000 people ride every day, that's 91.25 million people in a year.
About 39 cents per ride. Once you factor in station construction costs and new cars I can't imagine it's much more than $1 per ride.
