Our national passenger carrier owns 2% of the tracks that our taxes built. The track’s priority is business (which could run at night, instead of systematically delaying passenger trains). Via lies to its customers (when a train broke down near Brockville for six hours, Via claimed buses had been called, but bus companies in the region denied ever being called; when a tree fell on the tracks, delaying the train for 12 hours, Via claimed the tree had been removed, when anyone could see it was still on the tracks). Knowing that it’s trains are *customarily* late, Via leaves its passengers with no extra food, toilets unusable.. Now the *brand new* cars have no room for luggage… Honestly, if you can’t run a decent train company, stop embarrassing us as a nation and just close it down.
