Two children are dead after a city bus crashed into a daycare in Laval Wednesday morning. The incident sent shockwaves through the province and prompted a swift response from police and elected leaders. Here's what we know.

An STL bus crashed into a Laval daycare Wednesday morning. Details are scarce, but Quebec Premier François Legault has confirmed that the crash resulted in "serious" injuries.

You can get around Laval for less next Friday, even before the highly anticipated October fare drop. The Société de transport de Laval (STL) is lowering its ticket rate for all bus rides to $1 on September 23 in an effort to encourage residents to use public transit instead of driving.

Québec solidaire has released an ambitious proposal for transit expansion in the Montreal area, including a new "purple" metro line from Laval to Ville-Marie via Montréal-Nord, Rosemont and the Plateau Mont-Royal. The party says it would invest a whopping $47 billion to put the plan into action by 2030 if it's able to form a government after the 2022 Quebec election.

When the Montreal area completed its transition to a new transit fare schedule in July, Lavallois.es and Longueuillois.es saw price increases on tickets to Montreal. Since July 1, someone trying to get to Montreal by metro or bus from Laval or Longueuil has had to dish out $5.25 for a one-trip ticket, $10 for a two-trip ticket or $45 for a 10-trip ticket.
