If we take the HK model the faring system would be MUCH more reasonable. Each transaction involves a start and end point and the price would be reduced accordingly. So my ride from Richmond Center to Lansdowne would be different than if I ride from Richmond Center to Walmart on no.9 on the 410. Which makes all the fucking sense and encourage the short trip riders.
Short trips are short and in the system right now it's easily cheaper to drive than to bus if I want to take short trips. And short trips are worst for the environment because your car takes time to warm up and the emission system is not running at its best performance, and then when you get there your engine is just left there sitting to cool down and that's energy fucking wasted.
Oxymoron card would make short trips on a bus more of a daily routine.

I have PayPass on my MasterCard and the only places that ever support AND have it working are the Petro-Canadas. I go to Tim Hortons at least once a day, they have it, but it's never working. OR they purposely unplug it because some customers think that it's OMG SO DANGEROUS NO TOUCH TRANSACTIONS.

FINALLY.
Its odd how the HK card is the Octopus, and the London card is the Oyster.
Perhaps Vancouver should name it the Beaver or the Eagle or something
