Thunder Bay city council debates student transit pass prices
Students at Lakehead University and Confederation College pay about $100 a year for a Thunder Bay Transit pass but the city wants them to pay more.
The matter debated at Monday night's city council meeting in Thunder Bay, as the contract for the U-Pass is up for renewal.
