Woluld i have trouble going back to vancouver if i didnt pay a ticket???

Question

Answer 1

Yes, you will be arrested as anyone else would be as a "stowaway".  Do you think that just because you are from Mexico that you should get a free ticket.  Don't think so.  You need to get a job and pay for your ticket or you will pay for your time in jail.

Answer 2

If I understand your question correctly, you are worried about returning to Canada without having paid a skytrain ticket, right?  That's not a big deal, especially since it was so long ago.  It's not like they put out Canada wide warrants on people for unpaid skytrain tickets, it's like a parking ticket.  You can return to Canada without problem.  The other person who answered thinks you are trying to enter Canada without paying for your airline ticket; that's an entirely different thing than a skytrain ticket.

Answer 3

You cant get  a drivers licence  be responsible pay the ticket   > do the crime do the time

Answer 4

The Translink tickets are a joke. The transit police have no way of collecting, there is no system in place to follow up on tickets (a lot of people who are dinged for no ticket give a false name - I heard that "Mick Jagger" owes about $10,000 in unpaid Skytrain violations). Just pay the proper 2 or 3 zone fare when you ride the bus or Skytrain. The only way you will have trouble getting in to Canada is if you have a criminal warrant or your travel documents are not in order.
