round-trip from Kitchener to Toronto would cost $29.20. From Guelph it would cost $23.40 normal fare but fares are reduced with discount tickets. A monthly pass for Kitchener/Toronto costs $482 and from a monthly pass from Kit/Guelph costs $386 making it a viable option for university students and business folks to go car free. The pass is a tax deductible credit. </span></font><a href="http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/transitpass/">http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/transitpass/</a> </div><div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "><br></span></div><div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; ">Currently scheduled, they'll have two trains
