Bus from Canmore to Calgary was scheduled for 5:20am. We waited from 5am-6am and it didn't appear. I downloaded the app buy the online schedule didn't indicate delay. Tried to call but Office wasn't open yet. So there was no way to know if bus was still coming. Very frustrating. Had to ask a friend to drive instead so we didn't miss the connecting bus.

I got exactly the service I expected. On schedule, comfortable, at a reasonable price. But the best part was talking to other passengers to hear their stories and share a true sense of Canada.
