I wouldnt call this rage, but It would be super awesome if they provided Bus service on the weekends (friday/saturday) night a little bit later then midnight. If I remember correctly the transit system in Vancouver runs alot later then it does here. You've got to wonder if theres some sort of lobby group for the cabbies haha.
I know that not too many people are done drinking by midnight and I love paying 2.75 compared to 20 for a cab. I know it wouldnt be feasible on all routes but at least on some of the major routes like the 108/3/72/73/20 for example.
kinda like this would be awesome

NightBus
TransLink runs 12 NightBus routes that cover more ground than the three SkyTrain lines! Look for routes that start with "N" when looking up bus schedules, or use Trip Planner to find your best late-night route.
Good to Know: - 11 of the 12 NightBus routes originate in downtown Vancouver
- All NightBuses leave downtown Vancouver at 2:09, 2:39 and 3:09 a.m., except the N24 Upper Lonsdale, which leaves between 2:02 and 3:05 a.m.
- The last N10 Richmond Centre leaves downtown at 4:44 a.m.
View our NightBus Route Map for a network overview of our late-night service.
Request-a-Stop: If you feel safer getting off the bus at a point between two regular bus stops, between the hours of 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. you can "Request A Stop". The bus driver will let you off if he or she believes it's safe to do so. Note: You cannot "Request A Stop" along an express or limited-stop portion of a route.
