High-Speed Rail (HSR) - Toronto/Pearson/Kitchener/London
#86
Air Canada has more than half a dozen departures to Pearson daily. WestJet has seen fit to introduce another two daily starting in the spring. So that's some indication of the demand to Pearson. I couldn't guess at how many people would take rail to downtown if it were competitive with the speed of car travel.

London probably makes sense, I think. The further west it goes, the cheaper land and other costs become. And once we're talking about London, connections with proposed American high-speed rail start to be logical.
