Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Ottawa will invest an initial $3.9 billion for the development phase of a high-speed rail network in the Toronto-Quebec City corridor, which will take six years to build.
“We hear too often about delays or the lack of a special railway line for passengers. This is going to change. Today, I’m announcing the launching of Alto, the greatest, most ambitious infrastructure project in history,” Trudeau said during a press conference in Quebec on Feb. 19.
