Winnipeg Transit is offering free rides to veterans, current serving members of the Canadian Armed Forces, and a companion on Remembrance Day.

Those who wish to take a free ride can do so by wearing a military uniform, or by presenting military identification or CF1 card at the time of boarding.

“Providing free transit to veterans and current members of the Canadian armed forces is a way the city is able to recognize the tremendous commitment they have made, and continue to make, to our community and country,” said Mayor Brian Bowman.

Transit will operate on a Sunday schedule on November 11, while also displaying “Lest We Forget” as a banner message in rotation with regular route and destination messages.
