Greyhound Canada Transportation ULC (Greyhound Canada) was an intercity coach service that began as a local British Columbia bus line in the early 1920s, expanded across most of Canada, and became a subsidiary of the US Greyhound in 1940.

In 2018, Greyhound pulled out of Western Canada, preserving only domestic service in Ontario and Quebec, and trans-border routes to the United States.[1]

On May 13, 2021, Greyhound Canada permanently suspended operation in all of Canada, with the exceptions of the following cross-border routes, operated by Greyhound Lines (USA).[2][3]

In October 2021, FlixBus announced the acquisition of Greyhound, including Greyhound Canada.[6]

In June 2022, Trailways of New York severed its 25-year alliance with Greyhound, ending all interlining and codeshares.
