A bid to end crippling strikes or lockouts at OC Transpo was voted down on Friday by the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 279. The vote was 62.8 per cent in favour of maintaining the strike/lockout model instead of arbitration. Jim [...]]]></description>

But given: the increasingly cramped buses the increasingly common buses that just, like, don&#8217;t show up the increasing congestion downtown and around Hurdman station.
