By now you have probably watched the video of an OC Transpo bus driver yelling expletive deletives at a passenger who, as it was later discovered, was mentally challenged.
If not, here is the link to the video with the warning that the language used by the driver in question is shall we say colorful: http://wp.me/p12YTF-dz
Now in our Poll we asked the question as to whether or not the driver should be fired?  So far, and it is still early in the voting mind you, the overall response is a resounding YES!
With such an overwhelming outpouring of public anger towards the OC Transpo employee it might be safe to conclude that there is no other side to this story . . . or is there?
This evening we will delve into the complexity of the recent issue including why it is illegal to film on an OC Transpo bus, the possibility that the driver may sue the individual or individuals involved in capturing the angry exchange on video and, the impact this as well as other similar-type incidents have on the looming negotiations between the transit company and the Amalgamated Transit Union.
We will of course welcome your calls and comments through our phone lines (347-326-9234) or our live chat room.  Remember to participate in the conversation you have to register with Blog Talk Radio which is free and only takes and few moments.
