Love how you omitted Canada's capital and their rail system of complete failures and fuckups from your list.
That's not a project in progress, so I didn't include it. It's also in a completely different region than the GTA, while all those projects are in the GTHA (except maybe Waterloo).
It's LITERALLY being built right now..5 years ago, there was no rail system..you also claimed ONTARIO. So umm..wut

The original post was about GTA, so I talked about the GTA. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I didn't know they were extending the Confederation Line. As I said, it's a completely different region of the province, and I'm not as familiar with the national capital region. However, I know this statement
is BS. The Trillium line is over 2 decades old.
