A Hyperloop in Canada? One can only hope.....

In 2016, Hyperloop One held a competition to narrow down possible cities where the company could build one of its first routes in the world. Toronto to Montreal is one of the top choices to build the first hyperloop high-speed travel system.

The proposed route would connect Montreal, Ottawa, and Toronto, creating a Canadian mega region consisting of as much as 1/4 of Canada's population. If built, commuters would be able to travel from Toronto to Montreal (640 km) in 39 minutes (normal driving time of 6 hours); Toronto to Ottawa (450 km) in 27 minutes; and Ottawa to Montreal (190 km) in 12 minutes (normal driving time of 90 minutes). The company is working hard to have 3 production systems in service by 2021.
