What's your point? What is the GDP of California? The population density of the Bay area? California not having any high speed rail is straight up embarrassing. Same thing applies to the eastern corridors in both the states and Canada.

Canada is opting for HFR and claims that the harsh weather and at-grade crossings makes HSR impractical in the near future. It's not the best excuse, but at least VIA's new trains top out at around 200kmh.
