I think you're missing the point in his analysis. He is suggesting that population growth and reduction in travel time would get ridership up to 5.5M in 2030. But there's also the increase in frequency and new cities added, which should hopefully add 1.5M. Heck, done right, the Kingston hub should also boost ridership on the Lakeshore.
I am willing to bet that 7M within a decade of launch is going to prove conservative.
