Michael Pink and Craig Parry

Craig Parry: W. in Kitchener, near Grand River Hospital They were worth about $11,000, but Pink sold them for "pennies on the dollar" to feed his addiction, defence lawyer Craig Parry told Kitchener court, according to The Waterloo Record. The tickets were for newcomers to Canada taking English classes delivered by Conestoga. Michael Pink, 50, admitted stealing Grand River Transit tickets from a Conestoga College office on the third floor of a building at 800 King St. None of the tickets was recovered. Justice Gary Hearn agreed to a joint submission from Parry and Crown prosecutor Jim Dixon for four months in jail. Pink, who was on probation at the time, has 13 previous theft-related convictions.
