Y’all ever heard of trains?
Haven't tried recently but I heard it still takes all day to go from Kitchener -> Montreal, and it costs $200 each way. (Hearsay.)
It's a tragedy that our trains are so poor.
I mean Kitchener to Montreal is something close to 700-800km even if we had high speed trains that would still take about 4 hours if they average 200km/h, and they still have to make stops on the way.
But having more trains running would be a good start at least.
It needs to be cheaper and faster than driving, and it isn't even competitive on either.
