• Public Transit is a great option to get to the show.  For those looking to use public transport:
  • GO offers an all-day train service from Union Station to Exhibition GO station which runs every 30 minutes and takes 8 minutes.
  • GO train service along the Lakeshore East and West lines runs all day (check schedule) and parking is free at most GO stations along the line.
  • The TTC operates streetcar services that can drop you off right at the CNE. You can take the 509 Harbourfront or 511 Bathurst streetcars from Union Station and get off at the Exhibition Loop, located on the Toronto Exhibition grounds.  It’s just a 10-minute streetcar ride from Union Station to the Ex.
• For those patrollers choosing to take transit, please provide a copy of your receipt to customer service at shift end for reimbursement.

F.A.Q.

Shift sign-up for patrollers from the three Barrie area patrols is in ZIMS : Personal Menu>>Swap Shifts

Shift commitments are captured and stored in ZIMS, so you can always visit the swap shifts page to see your shifts. 

ZIMS will send automated shift reminders a day or two before your scheduled shifts

The three Barrie area patrols share in the proceeds from the swap and use the funds to reduce the cost of patrolling for their patrollers.
