Oops misread but same question....how long for that final 30%?

I wonder how long it will take to complete systems integration from 61%...

I have a feeling that many of the public are shuddering at this method given the negative impact it has been for yonge/eglinton. Sure it's not quite the same but to the general uneducated public they all see everything from the same lens

While it's great that we have been trying to catch up this last decade the unfortunate thing is that it has been catch up. What they are trying to do now is something that should've been done 30 years ago when you're comparing population density and city size. Still a long long way to go

Populism usually leaves the other side reeling and destitute

Seems like their oil lobbyists over there weren't as strong or they had a more progressive culture. Somewhere in the 1960s onwards it seemed like we just gave up any ambition to expand our infrastructure

Well it's not like we had nothing.... we had a huge rail network. Even our cities had extensive suburban rail for streetcars and inter urban trains. It's mainly politically driven and also thanks to automobile lobbyists

Maybe Healthcare and diversity? Seriously though when "inferior" countries like morroco, Thailand, Indonesia Malaysia and India building or already having hsr or hfr we are already a laughing stock and don't belong to G7

It's helpful if changing govts don't cancel infrastructure projects when they come into power just because of ideological differences. Just look at the hsr work that was immediately cancelled by Ford. Now to restart it'll be an additional $2B. Looking at the us most of their rail is owned by...

maybe they should break up the services to be run by region, Via West, East, and Central. At least for that the federal agenda wont affect the operations as much.

a tremendous shame if that were to happen. how are we going to be a "developed" country when our infrastructure is stuck in the 60s and only contracting...

wouldve liked to see 1 more big VIA logo at the Cab car end for symmetry.

i would welcome that! especially since the 50th anniversary is coming up! either way they will for sure do some form of special commemorative livery in 2027...

INB4 Verster makes up some excuse to line up the completion together with phase 2... we all know he wants to get that 1 big photo op for the entire line opening at the same time.

So the hype is real! I wonder what the occasion is 🤔

Does anyone know what are the most common problems on the new sets right now

kind of sad that being late is a norm for via. In japan the shinkansen averages one minute in a year

username checks out 😏

I don't think we will ever need that type of expansion. By the time that scenario approaches, the Station will be so old. It would be better to tear down everything and rebuild anyways

Yup and they also have to pass night driving too on roads and highways. I'll bet a huge number would fail here
