The best quotes for the Cascades High Speed Rail Proposal I have heard:

"This project is an exciting opportunity to improve communities, grow the economy, and open doors for people and businesses to prosper across the entire region in a sustainable future-focused way."

"A vision for a better connected Cascadia mega-region that will help our talented entrepreneurs, researchers and workers share knowledge and expand economic opportunity."

"Help grow economic opportunities in the Cascadia Innovation Corridor, shrinking the distance between Seattle, Vancouver and Portland will encourage greater collaboration, deeper economic ties and balanced growth for years to come"

All are arguments that would easily apply to the Calgary-Edmonton Corridor, and not just for high speed rail, they even apply to regional rail.
