C-T-F takes issue with Transit Police report

The Canadian Taxpayer’s Federation takes issue with the latest, generally positive report on Transit Police.

The “Five Year Trend” report goes back to 2008.

That report says 74 percent of the time users feel safe riding the system, an improvement from 2009.

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation says while the combined violent and property crime rate on the system is down 6.8 percent from 2008 to 2010, the crime rate across Metro Vancouver itself is down 14 percent for the same time period.
