Metrolinx to offer free travel for veterans on GO Transit

Program to be extended to UP Express in the future

Nov. 5 – As Remembrance Day approaches, and in honour of Veterans’ Week, Metrolinx recognizes the sacrifice veterans and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members (Regular and Reserve) have made to serve this country.

Each year, Metrolinx offers complimentary rides on Remembrance Day for veterans and CAF members.

This year, Metrolinx is proud to additionally announce that veterans and active Regular and Reserve members of the CAF across the region can travel for free year-round on GO Transit, beginning March 1, 2025.

Metrolinx is working to enable this fare type on PRESTO cards, and also make this available for UP Express in the future.
