Yes, like Danny Boy and some of the other die hard supporters of the malignant narcissist, pussy grabbing lunatic.

At least I don't think in someone else's communistnazi memes, and spew what keeps turning out to be UNTRUE Trump hating bullsh!T...such as someone we know here who keeps posting disconnected meems


..for your big head NAWT yer small head!

Why? There isn't the population density to warrant the expense with the possible exception of the TO-Montreal corridor. And even then...

Yes, you are full of bullshit indeed. The Kingston subdivision has a posted speed limit for trains rolling through of 90 mph. Yes, that's MILES per hour. Via frequently rolls though Pickering at 90-100 mph, they also travel around 100 mph through the Brockville sub.

Okay, you're partly correct. There's not a lot of high speed rail outside of southern Ontario and Quebec simply because of A) the huge distances between population centers and B) Too low of a population density throughout the vast majority of Canada to make the investment worthwhile.

For example, you know all those high speed rail lines in Europe and throughout Asia? Well only 3 of those lines actually make a profit. All the rest require subsidies to keep them running. And Via already has enough problems with profitability.

VIA hits 160km on the Prairie. We have the track for it.

They probably didn't need the infrastructure while Obama was in power and now they do! Not rocket science!

We need more infrastructure spending, and I don't give a damn who does it, or gets credit for it. No matter what happens, President Drunkuncle will claim it's the greatest infrastructure spending ever, bigly, and the haters will claim it's all a waste.

Whether or not it's sound, sensible spending remains to be seen.
