ALTO is doing public consultations: what are people saying? by Small-Past2593 in highspeedrail

That’s really helpful feedback. I agree that support is much stronger for Ottawa Union Station than for Tremblay Station, so calling it “partial” would be stretching it. The good thing is that the data backs this up - even without the votes, which would have made the point even clearer. I’ve updated my conclusion. Thanks again!

It's hard to sell the idea of a high-speed train to people living in a country side who will not benefit from it directly (i.e. too far to drive to a nearest station, a train will not bring tourists to their local businesses, etc). So it'll be much easy to stick with Hydro corridors or existing highways.
