HAPPY FAMILY DAY! 

What a great day to reach 38,000 signatures! This movement has been an Olympic Marathon of advocates passing the torch over the last 20 years, and we're determined to get the gold!

As you can see in the photo, we're not looking to go back to the "cute" Dayliner service that ran on Vancouver Island until 2011. Were not looking to do a patch repair like they tried in 2014, we are pushing to see a modern rail service brought to islanders.

Travelling with kids by train is one of freedom to move, access, time, focus ,and therefore, love. Would you take a tour around Vancouver Island with the family on Family day by train if you could?

Vancouver Island hosts the Legislature in Victoria, the Capital City of British Columbia. It has has multiple CAF campuses like CFB Esquimalt, CFB Comox and other detachments all in the railway's catchment. It has East-West, North-South Ports with a barely used connected railway. How can that make sense to any rational person?

Private buses won't take children under 9, and 100km on a bus isn't inviting. But Trains are!

The movement is still growing fast! Thanks for being a part of it!
