As the folks on UT point out, no EA is required for improvements in an existing rail right of way, or for running up to 200 km/h — i.e. for AD2W between KW & Toronto at twice the current speed. This announcement is just kicking the can down the road past the election, again.

You can make improvements to an existing corridor without an EA, you can't bulldoze half of Kent St without an EA.
