Dear editor;
Since the 1980s Canada has cancelled about half its train service, and now about half its bus service (if we include both Greyhound and Saskatchewan’s government bus service). In that time China has built about 20,000 km of high speed rail (average speed with stops 200km/hr, top speed 300 km/hr) and an uncountable number of subway lines. China is a developing country, while Canada obviously is not developing anything but further means to worship the automobile.

Since the 1980s Canada has cancelled much of its train service, and now about half its bus service (if we include both Greyhound and Saskatchewan’s government bus service). In that time China has built thousands of km [actually it is about 20,000km as I wrote] of high speed rail (average speed with stops 200km/hr [they omitted the top speed of 300km/hr]) and dozens of subway lines. China is a developing country, while Canada obviously is not developing anything but further means to worship the automobile.
