Imagine if the Vancouver-Portland corridor had HSR before the Quebec-Windsor corridor

thaat's another rail line that needs to happen yesterday. hell, extend it into detroit and onto chicago. if I may dream for a moment, extend it from chicago to o'hare and have a system to transfer to and from rail and air travel painless, so you can connect onto and from international flights

The highest traffic air route on the continent is Toronto NYC, so if the USA and Canada are going to coordinate for HSR that would be the one to do.
