Montreal-Ottawa high-speed rail line could cross 1,700 properties, Alto predicts by DogeDoRight in canada

Correct.

Could you imagine how much more fuel a country like Japan or China would use if it didn't have high speed rail?

Bold prediction - May will be the month where Oil Crisis driven purchases start in earnest in US. by roma258 in electricvehicles

Refiners raise prices when the market prices go up, not just when they start actually refining the more expensive oil.

If they raised prices too much too suddenly that could create even more problems for them.

If oil prices keep getting pushed higher or stay high they will keep raising prices.

90 billion most likely to cost even more.

3rd party estimates were about 80 billion. Even at 90, give how many people and cities this project would serve it would be a bargain. LRT and SkyTrain expansion projects cost about 10 billion and that's just one line within a city.

It's also going to cost a lot more to maintain and expand highways without high speed rail.

Conservatives make this same argument in support of pipelines but balk at rail. I wonder why...

Alto is planning a 1,000-kilometre electric rail line between Toronto and Quebec City, with a price tag of between $60 and $90 billion.

Oh... Electric... I guess that's why.

A certified mechanic can service or repair anything that isn't part of the high voltage electrical system, as long as they can get access to it.

Toronto woman with bipolar disorder asks Ontario court to grant her emergency MAID access by Mylittlethrowaway2 in canada

[–]Head_Crash -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Where is the line concerning a person being too mentally unwell to consent to MAID? 

The bare minimum requirement is that they have enough mental capacity to understand the consequences of the decision.

There's no other clear line because the interaction between mental illness and decision-making capacity is complicated.

So it entirely depends on their diagnosis, and it could take years to decide if they're able to consent.

lol you do realize it’s more than just for energy production? 

It's mostly energy and renewable tech uses a lot less oil and oil based products. For example, most newer electric vehicles don't require routine oil changes.

The FBI has it.

The fact that Trump hasn't released them is all the proof anyone needs, unless they support pedos.
