It can't be cumulative either. GO has been in operation for 47 years, if it were cumulative, ridership is dropping.
Perhaps it is 65 million rides per year (as in, I am 10 people per week). -

So a multiplication of the annual ridership times the amount of trips is the annual ridership?

As with government math, GO math is usually the sum of whatever the bigwigs want it to be. Logic and truthiness be damned.

I'm sure that for those who take a GO bus, then a train to work, and then reverse that to get home are counted as 4 "people".

It should be 64 million *trips* per year. Bad choice of words there :-)

@Matt: If you do GO bus+GO train and back, that's two trips, not four.

I think it was in-eloquently put, but they likely mean 65 million passenger trips per year which is feasible.

I agree - it's a confusing statement. Are you saying 64 million people have ridden GO since 1967 or that GO transports 64 million people in a year? If you could help me understand, that would be great. It can't be an annual figure. Your system doesn't support that
