for a high-speed rail corridor: Edmonton to Calgary via Red Deer Windsor to Quebec City via London, Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal A possible international high-speed rail link between Montreal and Boston or New York City is often discussed by regional leaders, though little progress has been made. On another international line between Vancouver and Seattle, work is in progress to improve the existing Amtrak Cascades service, though it will not reach speeds normally associated with high-speed rail. In Ontario, the Conservative Government elected in 2018 postponed its decision on high-speed lines, but still hopes to make efforts in that direction. Mexico The Secretariat of Communications and Transport of Mexico originally proposed a high-speed rail link that would transport passengers from Mexico City to Guadalajara, Jalisco, with stops in the cities of Querétaro, Guanajuato, Leon and Irapuato; and a connected line running from the port city of Manzanillo to Aguascalientes. The train which would travel at 300 km/h allows passengers to travel from Mexico City to Guadalajara in just 2 hours at an affordable price (the same trip by road would last 7 hours). The network was planned to connect the network to Monterrey, Chilpancingo, Cuernavaca, Toluca, Puebla, Tijuana, Hermosillo, Cordoba, Veracruz, Oaxaca, Colima, Zacatecas, Torreon, Chihuahua, Puebla, San Luis Potosi, Mexicali Saltillo and Acapulco by 2015, but nothing had materialized by 2020. The whole project was projected to cost 240 billion pesos, or about 25 billion dollars. In 2005, Mexican billionaire Carlos Helú expressed an interest in investing in high-speed rail. Most recently the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico has highlighted as one of the most probable areas for the development of high-speed rail in Latin America with the Transpeninsular Fast Train for bidding in September 2011. By 2014 the route for the 1st phase of the Mexico City-Guadalajara HST had been selected. This 1st stage was to have operated from the Buenavista station in Mexico City to Querétaro with a length of 212 km of high speed line. The HST was to have been further extended into the city of Guadalajara with an immediately extension after the 1st stage to the cities of Celaya, Salamanca, Irapuato and Leon. The 1st phase was to have been completed by 2018. The first High Speed Line in Latin America had been announced in July 2014 with the opening of an international tender to build a passenger train linking Mexico City and Querétaro at
