    Métis Transit Limited was a privately run public transit provider in Caledon, Ontario.
    Established in 2001 out of Caledon, Ontario, the service billed itself as the only aboriginal run transit service in Canada. It employed both aboriginal, (Métis) and non-Aboriginal drivers and staff. It operated without funding from the town, region, province or federal Governments.

    Operations were suspended in January 2006 and as of October 2006, remain suspended.
