The Issue

For years and years, people in Cornwall, Ontario have been facing the inconvenience of not having a bus service on Sundays. This is not just an occasional hurdle; it’s a persistent issue impacting many in our community. There are people who work on Sundays, and lack of public transportation severely limits their ability to fulfill their professional obligations. It's not just about convenience; it's about necessity. Moreover, there are individuals who do not drive—students, the elderly, and those in our community who rely solely on public transportation need a viable option available seven days a week.

Additionally, people with disabilities, and those who use mobility aids, find themselves stranded on Sundays without any means to travel independently. Their freedom to access various parts of the city when needed is curtailed, further marginalizing an already vulnerable group. The absence of Sunday bus service in Cornwall affects everyone’s right to accessible, convenient, and reliable public transportation.

We have witnessed how this absence has led to missed opportunities, disruption in daily activities, and even job losses, which are unnecessary setbacks our community shouldn't have to endure. Other cities have recognized public transportation as an essential service, it is time for Cornwall to join them.

We are urging city officials and local transit authorities to prioritize this issue and allocate resources towards implementing Sunday bus service in Cornwall. This change is not only possible but also crucial for ensuring that Cornwall remains a vibrant and inclusive community where all residents have fair access to transportation.

Sign this petition to show your support and advocate for a much-needed change. Your voice can drive Cornwall towards a more connected and accessible future.
