Cheaper and faster: a giant cannon to fire passengers across, safely ensconced in large rubber bubbles.
I read this as "a giant cannon to fire giant passengers" and was impressed you accommodated population growth.

They bothered to build a Confederation Bridge between 2 sparsely trafficked and populated areas so maybe a similar bridge can be built across the lake to accommodate trains and of course cars and trucks.
I'm just guessing here, but I'd think the demand for travel between Britain and France is larger than the demand between Toronto and Buffalo.
Plus the south of Lake Ontario could turn into a built out "New Jersey" in relation to Toronto proper with convenient fast connections in place.
So yeah - this would work!
And the OLG already subsidizes the bus tickets. Last time I went it was a $12.75 return ticket - *** AND *** - they put 10 bucks on your Casino card so really the trip including return is only $2.75 (tax included).
A 300km/h high speed rail is almost impossible to happen in Canada within the next 30 years. Maglev? Only China has the cash and the guts to do it now. Canada, not a chance.
