If this thing gets built at all, my bet would be only the Toronto to KW portion since it's along existing ROW. The portion to London would anger the rural base, and since London was heavy NDP territory not be worth the political capital, as well as actual capital.
I think what you'll see to KWC is implementation of GO RER. They just hired a manager from HS2 (the British high speed rail project) to work on GO RER. Not a small player.
