Ontario Northland Toronto Barrie recent customer reviews
The ride was fine. Getting on the bus was a trial. No clarity on lineups. The bus I wanted booked up because of the long weekend. I was surprised more buses weren’t put on given same.
The trip was OK. The driver was pretty rude. I think homophobic perhaps because I'm a pretty gay dude and he blatantly loomed me up and down with a look of disgust which I did not appreciate. I wasn't even dressed up I was wearing sweats lol. Maybe I'm reading into it but he ignored me the whole time when I was trying to store and retrieve my bag from the bottom of the bus. And I really didn't appreciate the look up and down.
The driver was polite and efficient. I don't understand why they drive past Jane St. on the 401 to the 400 in long weekend traffic then drive east again to the Vaughn 407 terminal. The 400 was very busy.
