I am by no means an english scholar, but how is this elitism? U-pass was approved by a majority vote in the past not by a few key people who schemed in back rooms. I would think this is more like socialized transport.

Yeah fuck that. And while they are putting things in referendum, get rid of libraries because not everyone uses them. Fuck the firemen because clearly they are only for the select few and I'll be damned if I pay for healthcare for someone else's 70 year old grandparent, get them to pay for what they use.

While I understand your premise, examples are abundant for where that train of thought doesn't make sense. The fact is BC is a "green" province and universities are the intellectual landscape for the province and it is exactly where these things should be done to promote its image.

Nevertheless, I think it would be a great solution for those who have a parking pass on campus to "opt" out of the Upass program.
