Free land? Where do I get some?
Land has value. If Transpod are forced to put down the money up front to completely rehabilitate it after it fails, fine, but given this province's poor performance on oil well liabilities that's not a sure thing. That said, the outcome I most expect will happen is that as negotiations move along, it will turn out Transpod are asking for more than claimed, the province rejects it, and it quietly falls off the radar.
We've built 2x 100km ring roads in the last 20 years, so I don't think this gives us any new experience in land assembly for new projects. I haven't seen any new technology come out of hyperloop in the time of it's existence, all it has done is proved what many of us saw when it was unveiled.
