      This guy still thinks he is going to get elected? Jeebus he really needs to learn how to read the room.

      Prime example of why nothing happens in this country. Money gets spent, the pendulum swings, nothing gets done.

      Hopefully that if will be never. He should just ago already and let someone else give it a shot for the Conservatives. I think he feels it’s his destiny to be PM and he wants to be PM or Die Trying

      Sigh… Whenever I go to Europe and see how much better their public transit is I wonder why we cant have that here… this is a big reason why. I love cars, but honestly would be happier to have a better transit system to get around the city (and country).

      Pierre says he will throw away taxpayer money is what I read.

      People only think of construction costs but bringing in people who know how to build these mega projects is not cheap.

      There was already a very low chance he could win my vote, but this reduces it to zero. What an idiot!

      liberals should pay for a bunch of internet ads that just play PP objecting to buiding modern transit.

      once – just once – i would love for him to propose a tangible alternative

      like anything

      seriously man, i know you are really good at saying no, or i will put a stop to that – but can you actually ever give input on what you would like to do – with some data and facts to support it

      # Poilievre promises to derail Liberals‘ Alto high-speed rail project if elected prime minister

      Hahaha…that delusional fool..he won’t even become 2nd tier honorary captain of the Muppet Show.. :°D

      Out of all the things to attack, that’s what he picks? Jesus dude, read the room. The easiest W is attacking the non sensical gun ban/buyback. Just say you’ll put that money to the border stopping the flow of illegal weapons

      So now he wants to limit our transportation? I thought he was against 15-minute cities.

      Conservatives would rather spend 100 billion on wars rather than 100 billion on public infrastructure

      The message that he’s sending is this:

      If you’re BC or Quebec, you have to suck it up and accept oil pipelines even though they may be risky because it’s in the “national interest”.

      If you’re a NIMBY or a rural dweller or a farmer, then your concerns are sacrosanct and we have to cater to you over the needs of the country.

      I can’t imagine that there was once a country named Canada where all parties and people agreed on building big things, quickly and efficiently. That country no longer exists.

    24. Logical-Breakfast150 on

       journalists needs to ask him how this is different from pipelines

      Perfect example why safe ridings should not exist. He has no clue what he’s doing. It’s just rhetoric and try not to get busted with some proud boys somewhere.

      But if voters put the fear in politicians, then we may just have an articulate opposition that, when they speak, actually bring something to the debate.

      Instead we have this.

      This is exhausting and shows his lack of seriousness as a candidate. There’s huge economic benefit to this project, you shouldn’t need to have any partisan views to recognize that.

      To take the side of people against expropriations is the silliest part of this. Nobody likes expropriation but it’s the cost of every infrastructure project ever. Virtually all of our major airports, rail lines, subway systems and highways were built at least partly on land that had to be expropriated. We make people whole by paying them fair compensation. If you can’t get with that, you literally can’t build anything.

      Hey conservatives, you know you can just walk away from this guy and start a new party right??

    32. Fireside_Cat on

      This seems like a poor strategy. The rural folks are not going to vote for the crazy NDP or Liberals, their votes are pretty safe. The urbanites are not voting Conservative in big numbers, but the high speed rail also seems popular among the suburbanites (905ers and the like) that the CPC needs. They have the money to travel internationally and see that other countries have this stuff and the density of Southern Ontario is approaching or at the level where we should too. It’s not 1980 anymore.

      This is why Doug Ford is premier and Pollievre isn’t. Ford gets that people want new things and don’t actually care about the costs in the end.

      At this stage, Poilievre telling us what he’ll do if he’s ever elected Prime Minister sounds a lot like when I have similar rants over a beer. I’m so glad his party is sticking with him, though. I was worried they might figure out from Trudeau’s resignation what you do when your deeply unpopular leader is tanking your party’s chances with nonpartisan voters. But with 85% of Conservative voters somehow still approving of Poilievre’s performance, I guess they’re committed. Still, Oct 2029 is a long way away.

      I would have loved high speed rail between Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto.

      So many times I’ve had to drive because via is both terrible and expensive.

    40. PreettyPreettygood on

      He’s just trying to get western Canada happy that another project didn’t go to benefit the “centre of the universe”
      As someone in northern bc, I do get frustrated that we don’t get a lot of investment but this project makes a lot of sense for Canada and that region. And it’s the only region populated enough, in an easy geographic region to build.

      I’d love to see high speed rail connecting parts of BC, but the mountains and population distribution make it a pipe dream

      Good plan. Little pp is so cute. Can you imagine we didn’t have carney to lead us through these difficult times.
