No relation to Loblaws I’m sure

Very high paying jobs may skew this number. Median wage is probably the more useful way to look at country level pay

I’m so sorry, I can’t imagine how you bear it

yeah agreed, but he’s not the only clown in the room

which clown?

For a fair comparison I’m assuming that most people will speed on the highway

I agree with you mostly.

But I’ll point out that 200km/h is still ~50% higher than highway speeds, with no traffic, and you can still focus on other things. So even low end rail is still better than driving.

I’m not even sure I mind low speed rail. I just want more and cheaper lines to everywhere. It’s way nicer than busses.

High speed can come afterwards if we can get public thinking behind trains as regular transport

Isn’t a more honest phrasing that Canada Post the public service costs 1bn/year to have in the country?

I think i still prefer having a mail system even if it costs money. Same as having police and roads.
