(I'm just kidding by the way, I'm not at all one of those "my tax dollars got spent on what?!" guys at all, I just wish there weren't so many damn transport trucks on the roads around here. I want trains back!)

I'm all for trains and my point was that currently being a taxpayer in NS means that at a pointless cost (icebreaking costs more than the train) Quebec is getting goods that could have gone through halifax.
Problem is... CN is a joke and we won't see any investment in our rail infrastructure unless leadership on all levels realize how important it is to our competitiveness as a country. Hell, they can't even agree on the Montreal - Toronto coridor.
