The high speed rail part of this annoucement doesn't really excite me. It's the improvements to the Kithener Line that will need to take place for High Speed Rail and will make AD2W GO possible that mostly excite me. It was a very wise move to keep it tied to the xisting corridor Metrolinx owns. Even if the next provincial government decides to can HSR, all of the work tht's currently being done as part of the EA is the same kind of work that will need to be done for AD2W, and some priority improvements (particularly through Guelph) can be given the go-ahead, even if electrificaition is perpetually delayed.
