Veterans Ride for Free

Every year on November 11 and for the Warriors' Day Parade at the CNE, we honour the men and women who have served to protect our country by offering free UP transportation for veterans, their companion and currently serving members of the Canadian military.

Veterans and currently serving members of the Canadian military are asked to identify themselves by wearing their medals, beret, blazer, uniform, or other similar belongings or Veteran’s Service Card while travelling.

Immediate family members of deceased veterans may also ride for free if carrying something to identify their relations to the late veteran, such as service papers or an identification card.
