Paperwork.If you are going to have a "low income" fare, I don't really see the point of having separate student and senior categories. If students and seniors aren't low income, why shouldn't they pay the regular fare?

True, but those very high income seniors probably aren't riding the TTC at all.If you are going to have a "low income" fare, I don't really see the point of having separate student and senior categories. If students and seniors aren't low income, why shouldn't they pay the regular fare? Most students are low income, but as pointed out, many seniors are very high income.
Paperwork.
Why would the commissioner and councillors support something that will be onerous, deeply unpopular, and largely trivial?It's true, but once you've set up the means testing system for the whole mass of people between 18 and 65 who aren't students, it's probably not that expensive to do it for seniors and students too. It would be good if they didn't have a means testing system at all and just had more affordable transit for everybody.
Seniors should be ridding free since they help to build the system in the first place and give you a nice life style.
