About This Blog

Dare to Dissemble is my little online ranting place, where I air my thoughts about the ridiculous state of affairs at the University of Alberta--a formerly strong public institution with tons of potential being driven into the ground by inept governance and irresponsible government funding policies. Comments are welcome, but not expected. Like most blogs on the internet, this one languishes in obscurity and is read for the most part by its proprietor.

Transit

The New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority recently announced that they were raising subway fares to $2.75, provoking a fair amount of hand-wringing about the cost to riders.  This is for one of the world's great transit systems.  Fortunately, here in Edmonton we pay much less for our somewhat modest transit.  Oh wait.
