5. GET TO KNOW THE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
Sometimes, it can happen that you are still far from your destination and you have to take the public transit. Which types of public transportation are most commonly used in Canada? The three most common types are streetcars, buses and the subway. You should also use specific verbs and prepositions with them.
Examples:
Is it far? No, it isn’t very far. It will take you 10 minutes to walk there.
Well, it is quite far. You’d better take the streetcar.

Take the streetcar / take the bus / go by streetcar / go by bus
