2026, Guelph ON &#8211; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alto is a high-speed train project that would connect Toronto, Peterborough, Ottawa, \u200b\u200b<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Montr\u00e9al, Laval, Trois-Rivi\u00e8res and Qu\u00e9bec City. The electrified rail line would span approximately 1,000 km and could travel at speeds of 300 km per hour (or more).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wildlife Preservation Canada is deeply concerned about the potential negative impacts this project could have on the many wildlife species that inhabit this region, the habitat it would bisect, and the communities that live there. One of the proposed Alto routes is of particular concern to WPC as it would run through a globally rare alvar grassland habitat\u2014the Napanee Limestone Plain\u2014that is home to an endangered species we have been saving from extinction in Canada: the eastern loggerhead shrike. This region is one of only two remaining breeding sites for this critically endangered songbird, and is in fact the strongest remaining population of eastern loggerhead shrikes in Canada. Shrikes in Ontario are reliant on alvars, and they will return to the same areas year after year to breed. Habitat loss is already a known threat to the species, and further development, as proposed by the Alto project, will greatly reduce the amount of suitable habitat in the province. This will put further pressure on an already precarious shrike population. For 25 years we have been working with local landowners in the region to protect and enhance habitat, and for the past 14 years this has been one of our release sites for juvenile shrikes that were bred in captivity to help support the wild population. This area is crucial for the recovery of the species in Canada, and has seen enormous investments to that end.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>WPC&#8217;s Technical Brief Letter to Alto:<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ALTOHighSpeedRail_WPCletter_22Apr2026.pdf\">Read the full letter here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Until April 24, 2026, Alto is inviting the public to comment on the proposed rail network. With options to attend consultations in-person or virtually, this is an opportunity for the community to learn about the project, speak up, ask questions and have their voice heard. Wildlife Preservation Canada encourages everyone to participate in the public consultation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please find a suite of resources below to get informed, ask questions and find out what you can do.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mah55b42-4cfa18b8b00013b3775ba7a4d76511ef\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-mah55b42-4cfa18b8b00013b3775ba7a4d76511ef{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-mah55b42-4cfa18b8b00013b3775ba7a4d76511ef hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-pw7g8z-0ab9c6a1d76257742799a78be7ffa2b1 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mah5ib66-4414d5fc117217352d5f601e95209272'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Learn more<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-2ow5c8z-45fa1f9671d33f5c8eba80e2d79528a0 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mah5bh9x-fdb654f92f1c74c0da9e206f9471c5a9'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3><b>Recent articles published:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feb 25, 2026 National Post: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nationalpost.com\/news\/canada\/some-communities-in-eastern-ontario-are-worried-about-plans-for-high-speed-rail\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some communities in Eastern Ontario are worried about plans for high speed rail<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feb 26, 2026 CBC News: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/canada\/ottawa\/alto-rail-canada-prescott-russell-route-9.7106389\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prescott-Russell communities band together over Alto high-speed project<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feb 27, 2026 Kawartha NOW: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kawarthanow.com\/2026\/02\/27\/over-800-people-attend-alto-open-house-on-proposed-high-speed-rail-corridor-through-peterborough\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over 800 people attend Alto open house on proposed high-speed rail corridor through peterborough<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feb 27, 2026 OFA: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ofa.on.ca\/newsroom\/farmers-call-for-responsible-agriculture-first-planning-in-alto-high-speed-rail-development\/\">Farmers call for responsible, agriculture-first planning in Alto High-Speed Rail Development <\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feb 27, 2026 CTV News: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/ottawa\/article\/eastern-ontario-politicians-raise-concerns-with-costs-potential-land-use-for-alto-high-speed-line\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eastern Ontario politicians raise concerns with costs, potential land use for Alto high-speed line<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">March 26, 2026 Inside Ottawa Valley: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.insideottawavalley.com\/news\/high-speed-rail-opposition-continues\/article_29759dff-a87f-5b73-bdf2-771038989093.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alto high-speed rail faces growing opposition from Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Laks MPP and MP<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li>March 10, 2026 Brockville Recorder &#038;
