High-Speed Rail

During Statements by Members, a Conservative member spoke against the Alto high-speed rail project in the Montreal–Ottawa corridor. He said it would affect hundreds of farms and more than a thousand landowners, that it would be costly and would face challenges from Canadian winters, and he asked the government to stop the project and support a third highway link for Quebec City instead. No other members spoke on the topic in the sampled statements.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
