Hi Dure-Sameen,
Really Sorry dear to ruin your expectations, but I have to inform you that public transportation in Canada is not free for international students. To cut expenses, students can take benefit of monthly passes and discounts.
Canada provides international students with a range of discounts and passes to make public transport affordable. You can get these passes to lower your expenses.
Student Presto Card:
International students are eligible for discounts in several Canadian cities. Students can travel for free or at a discounted rate for a certain amount of time with these passes.
International Student Identity Card (ISIC):
In certain areas, the Student Presto Card is a practical and rechargeable payment card for public transportation. When using Canadian transport systems, international students can receive this card at a discounted rate.
Student Transit Passes:
The ISIC is a widely accepted card that offers a number of advantages and savings, including reduced travel costs. This card can be obtained by international students to benefit from these savings.
Your Travel Expenses
The form of transportation that international students select will determine the cost of public transport in Canada. The price of transport will also differ based on the city where students reside.
You can calculate your travel expenses through this information of price levels according to cities. Please keep in mind these prices can change with time and distance. Please keep in mind these prices can change with time and distance.
