“I see CABR as a very compelling project for not only the Province of Alberta but all of Canada for several reasons including: Economic Diversification – by providing a direct, express rail connection between the Calgary Airport and downtown, the city of Calgary will have the fastest mass transit rail connection between an airport and downtown city in all of North America; Environmental Leadership – CABR’s potential to be North America’s first hydrogen-powered, zero-emissions passenger rail system should help to accelerate Alberta’s plans in developing its hydrogen economy; and Best Practices Public-Private-Partnership Model – CABR’s private-public-partnership model whereby the P3 train system assumes commercial risks including capital costs and ridership revenue, is unique in Canada.”
