Main reason I want to emigrate, no lie

The fact that the Windsor-Quebec corridor is barely faster than driving (and often far slower) for luxury prices (200+ dollars sometimes for roundtrip on a train averaging 80kmh on a good day) is insane to me, let alone that the rest of the US northeast/Canadian southeast border area is barely connected. It is a full 12 hour day of travel to get to New York from Toronto or Montreal, which should be a few hours of HSR tops
