The Government of Ontario and Metrolinx have plans to sell GO Station naming rights to potential sponsors.

As part of the agreements, they also plan on giving away ridership data, scrubbed of personally identifying information, to those sponsors.

The government should not be selling GO Transit ridership data as a revenue stream. Instead, it should follow-through with its commitment of publicly releasing government data on its website as a way to "encourage innovation and solve problems through new ideas and applications"
