Anyone who has followed former VIA Rail President, now Siemens employee, Yves Desjardins-Siciliano high-frequency rail crusade in Ontario and Quebec were left with more questions than answers. Details of the plan were scare and kept secret from the public. Yves anti high-speed rail speeches were well documented. VIA Rail Canada's map on the alternative, high frequency rail, changed frequently and often. Claims of improved frequencies, travel times, speeds were touted without any quality evidence to support it. High Speed Rail Canada releases this study to show just how far VIA Rail will go to keep the public in the dark about their proposed plan. This study is so heavily redacted it is almost worthless. Why the secrets? Perhaps this high frequency rail plan was just a pipe dream of Mr. Desjardins-Siciliano. Reminder the study is NOT about high-speed rail. Click HERE to view and download the study. Canadians deserve better.
High Speed Rail Canada to Release the flawed VIA Rail High Frequency Rail Study 9:00am 04/19/2022. We will make this study available to you as we believe that taxpayers have the right to see what they pay for. This study is so heavily redacted the public is unable to get basic information on VIA Rail Canada's proposed High Frequency Rail Plan. Why is VIA Rail Canada not willing to share the details of this plan with the public? This is a NOT at study about high-speed rail. We deserve better. http://highspeedrailcanada.com
