Does the federal government offer the public transit tax credit in 2023? Are we able to claim it this year?

The browser program doesn't have an option to claim this credit. I've triple-checked all the non-refundable credits that I can claim that is listed.

As per the Canada Revenue Agency(CRA), the Federal Public Transit tax credit was eliminated in 2017, currently only Ontario offers a credit for seniors. https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontario-seniors-public-transit-tax-credit

 

For more detail, you can refer to this CRA link: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/programs/about-canada-revenue-agency-cra/federal-government-budgets/budget-2017-building-a-strong-middle-class/public-transit-tax-credit.html
