If the HSR were ever to be up and running, airlines would stop flying Toronto to London. Pearson wants to save slots and use them on more international service.
Also really depends on how service is set up. In France for example, Air France interlines with SNCF, your next "plane" from Paris could be a train. And in many countries rail services may offer a luggage free ride. For example, you check in your bags in London, and you don't see them again till your final destination. You'll get off at the hub and check in over there and then head to the terminal.
