Summary. This research examines over 800 transit projects funded by the Canadian government across Ontario, British Columbia, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia to assess how funding actually reaches rural communities. The authors analyze project location, type, geography, and transit mode to evaluate whether government investments genuinely improve rural mobility and accessibility. The study creates a data-driven framework for analyzing rural transit funding and holds governments accountable to their stated goals of expanding rural transit access.
