Canada is great at high-speed rail studies โ€” but not at actually building high-speed rail. So why is it the only country in the developed world considering a new conventional-speed passenger network?

Canada used to have that. But then we decided to urbanize, which allows people to walk everywhere, and thus we eventually had no need for the transit and eventually we ripped it up. Itโ€™s interesting we want to go back to the rural lifestyle again.
