Grey County thanks Driverseat Owen Sound for their professionalism and exceptional service operating GTR for the past five years. We also thank passengers for their support of the service, and all partners across the routes who supported the service by permitting bus stops and promoting the service.
Grey County also thanks the Province of Ontario for providing Grey County with $2,774,000 in operating funding through the Ontario Community Transportation Program.
At South Grey News, we endeavour to bring you truthful and factual, up-to-date local community news in a quick and easy-to-digest format that’s free of political bias. We believe this service is more important today than ever before, as social media has given rise to misinformation, largely unchecked by big corporations who put profits ahead of their responsibilities.
South Grey News does not have the resources of a big corporation. We are a small, locally owned-and-operated organization. Research, analysis and physical attendance at public meetings and community events requires considerable effort. But contributions from readers and advertisers, however big or small, go a long way to helping us deliver positive, open and honest journalism for this community.
Please consider supporting South Grey News with a donation in lieu of a subscription fee and let us know that our efforts are appreciated. Thank you.
