It's hard to envision a fare increase that would not be followed by a drop in ridership. But my understanding is that the allocation of federal gas tax transfer funds is "based exclusively on ridership" (http://www.infrastructure.gc.ca). That being the case, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise if your transit authority is inflating it's numbers. That's the suspicion that I've had with respect to London's numbers. You might like to read my inquiry to the GM of the London Transit Commission which was ignored by that gentleman, and subsequently by London Council's Environment & Transportation Committee: http://frommybottomstep.wordpress.com/20...
