The federal government is expected to announce plans to move forward with a high-speed rail project linking Quebec City and Toronto, with electric trains reportedly capable of reaching speeds of 300 km/h. Although no official announcement has been made, sources suggest the new line would significantly reduce travel time between Montreal and Toronto — from the current 5.5-hour drive, or more than five hours by train, to just three hours by train — and include stops in cities such as Ottawa, Laval and Trois-Rivières, all while operating on a dedicated track.

For Ashley Farrington (BCom’21), short-term sacrifices are worth it if they pay out as long-term gains. The 24-year-old auditor with KPMG in Bermuda has earned some early career returns for her efforts and was recently named a Rising Star by The Bermudian. She aims to become an empathetic leader who is both approachable and decisive. “I want to be someone who has wedged her foot in the door to bring other women up with her,” says Farrington.
When working for a Big Four accounting firm early in her career, Sheila Vokey (BCom’84)—now President and CEO of the responsible investing firm Central 1—saw senior managers struggle to balance work and family life and decided on a different approach. After stints at the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, the Bank of Canada, and Payments Canada, Vokey headed west to Vancouver to become CFO at Central 1, where she has been an advocate of remote work and work-life balance ever since.

Gopalakrishnan points to the Indian state of Kerala as a cautionary tale. It had one of the world’s first democratically elected communist governments, which implemented a system called nokku kooli.
Wind has been powering the economy for centuries. Long before giant aluminum windmills were fed into the electric grid, wind filled the sails of ships plying the open seas.

However, the approach will work better for some products than others, according to Vice-Dean of Faculty Saibal Ray.
