Ride sharing isn't a popular thing in Western Canada.

Greyhound moved freight to subsidize the passenger business. In recent years they contracted the local P&D service out, concentrated on the over the road.

Fuel costs, maintenance, wages all took a toll. I feel for those who did rely on the bus to get to the city for appointments etc.

There are so many carriers out there providing small package and next day service ( when they get it right), that the package business Greyhound had will be absorbed before you know it.
