Langara students options to get to campus during bus strike

STUDENT, continues from page 1

Sonali Dhingra and Shradha Oberoi, both second-year marketing management students at Langara, were commuting together, and said they will also skip class.

“We won’t be coming,” Dhingra said. “We will have to skip. It’s really expensive taking a cab here, so we’re not going to do that.”

Dhingra said she will still have to go to work and will have no choice but to take a cab, which will cost her $24 each day.

Unifor, the union representing the striking workers, said if an agreement isn’t reached, a complete bus and SeaBus shutdown will occur from Wednesday, Nov. 27 to Friday, Nov. 29.
