I heard it first today! What a scoop!
I am a native of Hawkesbury and I represent the riding of Gatineau. I take the train on occasion, but not very often. There is one thing that surprises me and its ties in with one of the points raised, namely ridership.
I read in the document that one of the goals was to increase ridership by 30%. The corporation has managed to increase it by 5%. Yet, train travel is quite comfortable. Perhaps cost is a factor. I don't know.
In your opinion, what steps need to be taken so that train travel does in fact...Everyone talks about the greening of society and train travel could be a possible solution to achieving this objective...Does it boil down to the government's will to act, or is it a question of promoting this mode of transportation?
