Kingston Stop Proposed for High-Speed Rail

The feds are urging high-speed rail builder Alto to seriously consider adding a Kingston stop after months of public feedback — a major win for communities who’ve been heard. This $60–90 billion project, aiming to connect Toronto and Quebec City with 300+ km/h trains, faces fierce opposition from rural Ontario and Quebec residents worried about land seizures, disruption, and taxpayer burden. While a southern route including Kingston is now being mapped, the first phase between Montreal and Ottawa won’t start until 2029–2030. With strong voices on both sides, this ambitious project remains deeply contested — and far from finished. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
