Mr. Mario Péloquin at the Transport, Infrastructure and Communities Committee

I can echo Bombardier's comments; it is well known around the world that, when the state decides to build a new high speed train, the public accepts it immediately, if it had not been demanded already. Ridership is always greater than the studies predicted. In Canada, we often talk about strategic corridors such as Calgary—Edmonton and Quebec City—Windsor. I think a high speed train in those two corridors would be viable.
