    Did I detect a hint of cynicism there?

    “It’s expected to take four to five years to design the future high-speed line. Funds are to be allocated at the end of that time period, so it’s possible a future government could modify or cancel the project.”

    I’m hoping this comes to pass, but I have a small shred of doubt

      A large cup of it, if they were serious it would of been at the start of there tenor.

      I always hear about high-speed rail, whether it’s provincial or federal and its always just before an election.

      So ya, i don’t believe they are serious about this at all.

      Canada needs high-speed rail.
