The Canadian government recently announced recipients of the second round of funding under Transit-Secure, a two-year, $80 million transit security program launched in July 2006.
The government will provide up to $2 million to various rail and urban transit operators, and intercity rail and bus companies. Recipients include: eight transit agencies in Ontario (grants totaling $967,000); an agency in British Columbia ($300,000); an agency in Quebec ($187,500); an agency in Nova Scotia ($180,000); two agencies in Saskatchewan ($105,000); an agency in Manitoba ($99,750); and two agencies in Alberta ($86,250).
The federal government awarded the first round of funds in November 2006. Transit agencies in Canada’s six largest urban areas — Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver — received a total of $37 million.
