Claude And His Bus
An Adventure on Every Trip
by Claude Boucher

---

In a fast-paced and frantic world, it feels like the most important thing is getting from point A to point B as fast as possible. But sometimes, the urgency of the modern world makes us forget that the journey is just as important too - even if the journey is seemingly as simple as the route the bus takes every day. As a transit bus driver, Claude Boucher ferries passengers from every walk of life. He connects with each of his passengers as best he can, sharing with them their highs and their lows as they traverse through life. In Claude and His Bus, his passion for his work and kindness toward his passengers shines through, showing that there is still room for positivity and laughter in an otherwise busy society. From late-night drunken passengers to lost Canadian immigrants, Claude has seen it all, and his heart has done nothing but grow with compassion. Join Claude as he tells over sixty stories of his time as a public transit driver. From hilarious to heartwarming, his experiences are a feel-good reminder that even something as small as a smile and a “thank you” can change the trajectory of someone’s entire day.

Claude Boucher (Claude - pronounced as in ‘clode’ the door…) was born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada where he was raised by a Portuguese / Caribbean mother (and as he claims - raised on Curry), has been driving buses for the past 12 years. Prior to that he worked in the facilities management field and then in the transportation industry with intermodal containers via trains and trucks before a sudden (unexpected) retirement at the ripe age of 55. Claude felt it was finally time to do something he truly wanted and different – in an entirely different profession - first driving coach buses, and now in public transit. Because of his lengthy life experience and interactions with people, he enjoys making connections with his passengers, hoping to ease their burdens whenever possible. He came from a low-income family and went on to complete secondary and post-secondary education, so he relates firsthand to the struggles many of his passengers seem to face. Claude was encouraged to write Claude And His Bus by his daughter and a dear friend in the hopes that it would inspire others to perform good deeds and spread positivity in a world that so desperately needs it. He currently lives in East York, Ontario, Canada.
