As much as we hate the Calgary Transit system, I agree with Flames gimp. The Handi-bus is 10,000 times worse. I try to go to movies, dinners, etc with my brother who relies on it, but I just can't do it anymore due to the unreliability of Handi-buses

We get mad at the bus being 5-20 minutes late. Try waiting for 2 hours!!! Or we've had instances where we'd call after the bus not showing up after 15 minutes. They tell us its on the way. Wait another 15 minutes. They tell us it should be there in 5. Call them back and then they tell us they don't see a booking!!!

VERY frustrating. I think the city should pump some more money into the Handi bus service before the Transit system. Between Handi bus and AISH, the severely handicap are getting SCREWED!!!
