The Trudeau government will announce plans for a high-speed train linking Quebec City and Toronto in the coming weeks, Radio-Canada has learned.

Proponents of the project hope the train will take passengers from Montreal to Toronto in three hours. By car, it takes about five-and-a-half hours to travel between the two cities.

Sources told Radio-Canada the train will travel 300 kilometres per hour — double the speed of Via Rail's current trains.

Ottawa announced plans back in 2021 to build what it called a "high-frequency" (HFR) rail corridor with stops in Toronto, Peterborough, Ottawa, Montreal, Trois-Rivières, Laval and Quebec City.

I’m sure there’s a canon reason why obi-wan chose Ben as his new name multiple times but consider: that’s his older brother’s name and he doesn’t actually remember this because he doesn’t remember much of anything about his biological family at all. Ben just sounds right, like he’s heard it a thousand times before. So he starts using it for all of his undercover work or missions and then eventually when he gets to Tatooine post ROTS

meanwhile of course obi-wan’s older brother Ben Kenobi is incredibly confused as to why he sometimes arrives on a planet for the very first time only to find out that he’s been banned from ever stepping foot there again

We’re getting a clearer picture of the massive cuts TransLink says are coming to Metro Vancouver’s transit system after 2025 if it can’t secure stable funding.

The agency has repeatedly warned that it faces an annual funding gap of about $600 million from what is needed to operate the system.

A new report prepared for the TransLink Mayor’s Council obtained by Global News and set for release Thursday outlines the potential for severe system-wide cuts.

Those cuts would include slashing bus service in half, reducing SkyTrain and SeaBus service by up to one-third and potentially scrapping the West Coast Express rail service entirely. [...]

Note from the poster @el-shab-hussein: This should be pissing you off a LOT. A whole lot. This is cutting funding to an essential service with no similarly affordable backup or alternative being present for its users.
