Megabus, the original $1 bus, is set to have it's official launch tomorrow at 100 King St. W. Link
Megabus, which started in the UK, is a low cost inter-city bus service from Stagecoach Group. Depending on how early you purchase your ticket via the internet, your trip can be as low as $1 plus a 50 cent booking fee. Megabus started service in the US in 2006 and currently has one route servicing Toronto from New York.
Now more Canadian cities will receive Megabus service. Stagecoach Group subsidiary Coach Canada has already run their Toronto-Kingston-Montreal line in the Megabus style in the past (ie. Winter Seat sale), but will make it official tomorrow. Also recently more and more Megabus branded Van Hool double decks have been spotted on that line.
Here's a photo I snapped of one of the new buses by the Toronto Coach Terminal:
