Just taking a look, it seems they did the Presto Card as well. Wasn't there a delay with that system in Ottawa? I think it is the same system they use in Toronto and I don't recall any major delays so maybe it was an exception. If it was, Calgary Transit should seriously look into them. Maybe they can sneak in with Edmonton.
