More Transit Southern Ontario (MTSO) is a grassroots organization advocating for more connected, affordable, frequent, and reliable transit across Southern Ontario.

Southern Ontario has a problem when it comes to connecting towns and cities outside of the Greater Toronto Area. Many towns that require connections have either lost them, or never had them in the first place.
There is a distinct lack of Kitchener-Cambridge-Guelph connections despite the notable growth in the region in the past decade.

Our transit infrastructure is essential for a growing region & is vital to creating equitable, reliable and affordable access of mobility for all Ontarians. 🚍 🚆 🚈 🚇
However, we're stuck in traffic, playing catchup to build transit & even going backwards sometimes. Transit agencies are facing funding shortages, project delays & costs are increasing, services are being cut among the many other impacts affecting our transit systems. Transit riders face the brunt of these impacts to services.
We want to improve our transit networks, not cut back on their essential services.
We're riders ourselves. 👋
What is MTSO doing?
We're working across this province together in part with local advocacy groups, operators, governments and other stakeholders to make better transit for all.
What can you do?
Call on your representatives to invest in public transit, join public consultations to share your voice, follow campaigns that advocate for better transit and to take action on improving your local transit system. Join us on Discord to help get riders' voices heard!
