VIA Rail delays always seem to hide behind weather, freight trains on the same line, etc.
Here's an example of the real reasons: trains not ready for boarding at the appointed time. There is NO EXCUSE for this.
Start working PROACTIVELY rather than waiting for sh*t to happen.

If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
