Travel between Montreal and Toronto could soon rival flying. The Canadian government has announced it's seeking proposals for an inaugural high-frequency rail (HFR) project, signalling a step closer to the major transportation upgrade.
The Montreal City Council unanimously passed a motion Monday night in favour of bringing high-speed rail service to the Toronto–Quebec City corridor. The motion calls on the federal government to go beyond its current plans for only "high-frequency" rail between Canada's largest cities.
