Yes, the link that Canard posted has 19 links to studies. However, a quick Google search didn't reveal any Environmental Assessments, either on the Internet or on the highspeedrailcanada site. The 2011 study, for instance, was a feasibility study, not an EA. Some of the documents there are polls, others are economic impact reports or other such studies.
I'm still not holding my breath. But it seems to me that an EA is the first step that one would need to do before launching a project. Necessary, but certainly not sufficient.
