Plus STO (Gatineau) passes are cheaper than OC Transpo (Ottawa) passes. And STO monthly passes are valid on the entire OC Transpo system in Ottawa.

I was referring more of costs in terms of time. People sometimes forget that time is valuable. For office workers, you might only need to commute once in the morning and once in evening to get to/from work, but for students, sometimes you have 1h30 or 3h classes spread out between the day. The farther you live (or harder it is to get home), you set stuck either having to spend hours on campus (because going home is a hassle) or get very creative with your planning.
