Maybe, maybe not. It just really frustrates me when I do hear people from elsewhere in Canada complain along the lines of "Ontario and Quebec get all the attention! Wah!" Yeah, of course they do. They contain over half the total population and since people are responsible for votes, politicians will campaign where the votes are.

If anything, having a line operational in Ont/Que might create a stronger case for the construction of one in AB.

God, I hope so. We really need HSR in Canada.

In Alberta, the CGY/EDM corridor is about 3 million and 1/3 the length of Windsor/QC, and there's really no telling how large it will grow to by the time we have HSR online.

Who knows, but it would be a great investment for Alberta. Chances are that likely growth will come to/from Red Deer, and maybe to Lethbridge in the future. If Saskatchewan keeps growing, then we might see a Regina-Saskatoon HSR line in the decades to come.
