Montreal has a similar system but a little lower tech. Each bus stop has a unique phone number. You call the number, choose your language (as always in Quebec) then enter the bus you want information on. It then tells you if there are any problems and the next 3 arrivals.
I’m not sure if the information is generated using GPS or if it’s just reading off schedules but it seemed pretty reliable to me.
