It's still hilarious that a $300-500 parking pass is a logical option for those who live on their own and pay for their own school. My calculations were pretty basic (and based on 6 months since two full semesters are split nicely into 6 month periods) but whether you have 800 or 2000 left over after everything but food, a parking pass that uses 25-60% of your disposable income IS hilarious.

Buy one if you want, but saying it's easily affordable by everyone is a joke. Plus, school is CLEARLY more expensive than it was when you went 10-15 years ago. Especially Mount Royal.

At the end of the day, regardless of how affordable it is, if you're asking whether I'll pay 300 to park, or have an extra 300 for absolutely anything else? ...yeah, I'm going to go ahead and park in front of someone's house for free.
Where would you park when you consider there are no parking zones surrounding hospitals and schools?

Btw 4x4's house comes with a truck and a set chains to drag illegal parkers away from where you should not be parking
