“The pandemic, and required travel restrictions to help keep Canadians safe, brought a further dramatic drop of approximately 95 percent of normal volumes before operations were fully suspended in May 2020,” said a Greyhound statement.
Greyhound Canada has made the difficult decision to discontinue all operations on its remaining routes in Ontario and Quebec, and will permanently close all services in Canada effective May 13th, 2021.
This announcement has no impact on Greyhound Lines’ operations within the United States.
Greyhound Lines, Inc. (USA) will continue to operate cross-border express services on the
following routes when the border reopens:
Toronto to New York
Toronto to Buffalo
Montreal to New York
Montreal to Boston
Vancouver to Seattle
“We deeply regret the impact this has on our staff and our customers, as well as the
communities we have had the privilege of serving for many years. A full year without revenue has unfortunately made it impossible to continue operations. Thank
you to our dedicated staff for their commitment and service, and to our customers for choosing Greyhound Canada during better times. The company remains committed to honouring its labour agreements with employees and funding the commitments to our pension plan participants.”
