The Prime Minister, Mark Carney, announced that, for the first time in four decades, VIA Rail passenger cars will be built in Canada. The federal government is investing more than $4.7 billion for VIA Rail to acquire and maintain 313 new passenger rail cars from Alstom Canada.
Where are these cars going to be used? Ontario and Quebec only?
Half of the country lives in a straight line between windsor and quebec city, so it would be a great start to improve rail there first (even if it feels unfair to the rest of the country)…
Even just toronto to montreal would be a great place to start in terms of bringing canada in line with other developed nations
Yeah, yeah. Ontario first and everywhere else, never.
