Driving 8 hours round trip today to pick up one person, and I’ll never understand why Americans think this is more convenient than my colleague taking a train.

Bruh it’s that bad here. Eastern Canadians are lucky, in Western Canada within cities it’s barely acceptable in some cases and as bad as the average US city in many others. You will not find an inter city train in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba that actually connects you to where you want to go. Via Rail is an absolute JOKE and I’m literally hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest station.
Man, that sucks :(
It’s worse than that. The SK government used to run a bus service all over the province. They shut it down, expecting a private company to take over. To the surprise of absolutely nobody now we have no transportation at all between cities and towns that isn’t the occasional plane or cars.
