This is a followup to my previous post:
Calculating Commuting Costs on Vancouver Island.
You can read the reasoning behind it, the methods and what not at the last post… this is simply a continuation showing costs of commuting to Victoria.

And that means renewed rail on the E&N.
Please, show your support, and go to OurCorridor.ca … push senior levels of government to invest in the E&N and make it a viable alternative for people, and for industry and business.
