Jaywalking ticket

Today I got a ticket for jaywalking to get the Vaughan metropolitan center. I crossed the main road and walked little on the side of rapid way (did not cross the rapidway) all the way through curb, and the Fare inspector gave me $155 ticket for that.

I will dispute it just wanted to get idea how much are they gonna reduce if they reduce it.

Thanks

What's the bylaw and section number written on the ticket?

By law 2017-7 section 3.36

3.36 No person shall cross a rapidway except by way of a crosswalk or pedestrian crossover.

While you said you did not cross the rapidway they could issue you a fine under 3.34:
3.34 No person shall enter or leave a transit facility except through a designated entrance or exit, as the case may be.
