I'll make the offer again. If you're wrong, will you quit this thread? I'm ready to commit to this. Why aren't you?

I will apologize, like I do when proven wrong. I did not ask, nor do I expect you to leave if you are wrong. That is not how intelligent conversations with adults work. Itt is how little children and right wing nut jobs act when they are proven wrong. It i also known as a tantrum.

You are referring to Cobourg.
What is the population of Oshawa?
What is the population of Belleville?

Given that the province you want to give them does have a track record of cutting service to their 2 other rail networks to save money, I don't see how I lack comprehension.

When saying Toronto, I do not mean downtown and that's it. I figure there would be one or 2 in the outskirts. A stop at YYZ is realistic.
I think you mean London. If we assume that the train would do the entire length, I just don't see the need for the frequency there.

So funny you say that. Pre pandemic, the local hospital was doing hallway medicine. It was interesting that someone had to ask a museum for a part they have o that we can fix something to get home. Any other comparisons you want to make that will be surprisingly true?

Wait, you can't afford business class? Ok, so, you are no longer the cranky old man I thought you were. Does your mom give you a curfew to be on the "magic box"?
