About this listen

Violence on public transit is on the rise across the country, a new investigation from CBC News and the Investigative Journalism Foundation found. In Winnipeg, the trend is stark: violent incidents on buses have increased over 280 per cent since 2018.

The Amalgamated Transit Union has been sounding the alarm for months now. Despite new measures like protective shields for drivers and safety patrols, union president Chris Scott says much more needs to be done.
