Please look at www.cleantrain.ca?>http://www.cleantrain.ca"> href="http://www.cleantrain.ca/">http://www.cleantrain.ca/ before thinking that the high speed train (or UPRL) will not be highly polluting.

The City Council has asked for a GO train instead, and www.cleantrain.ca?>http://www.cleantrain.ca"> href="http://www.cleantrain.ca/">http://www.cleantrain.ca/ is requesting electrification now instead of 15 years from now.
