The AMT, Agence Metropolitaine de Transport has agreed to lease the AMT Beaconsfield Heritage Train Station to People Mover TRANSIT Authority/Autorite TRANSIT des Gens du Pays from May 1st to August 31th, 2008 to administer our sponsorship of the West Island INFO-TOURISME Kiosque.
The Government of Canada/Canada Summer Jobs 2008 Application was completed and submitted by People Mover TRANSIT Authority on February 29th to Service Canada to hire up to 50 full-time students, working up to 40 hours per week from April 28th to August 31th, 2008. A favorable decision from Service Canada is expected by mid-April.
All are invited to help us apply to other funding sources for both public and private to help us secure additional funding to pay the rent, utilities, liability insurance, furniture, office supplies and equipment, display cases for tourism brochures, phone lines, fax and computers. Next meeting of People Mover TRANSIT Authority is on Saturday, April 26th at 9AM at Fairview Centre/Food Court/Subway. To sign-up, visit www.peoplemover.ca/signup.html or call (514) 630-6116.

Out in the bitter cold

The same AMT that raised the price of a monthly pass to 104 dollars?

Maybe the AMT ought to open their station in the winter to the passengers who have to wait in the cold for the buses that never connect on time. The AMT closes the station at 9:45 AM, too bad if you want to use it after that.
