TTC votes to take away Giambrone’s free Metropasses

Adam Giambrone no longer has a ticket to ride, for now.

The former TTC chair has had his free Metropasses revoked until he pays back money he overspent while he was at the helm of the transit commission.

All former TTC chairs are given free transit passes.

Giambrone went over his TTC office budget of $125,000 by $3,344 in 2010. The commission this week voted to take away his perk for three years, or until he pays back the money.

The former city councillor and mayoral candidate didn’t run for re-election in last fall’s municipal election.

Giambrone has drawn criticism in the past for billing taxpayers $4,000 for French lessons and $15,000 for a TTC report accompanied by a slick YouTube video.
