Via Rail's most traveled inter-city routes 2020
Via Rail's route between Montréal, Ottawa and Toronto was the busiest in terms of ridership, with almost 578,300 people traveling in 2020. That same year, the Toronto to Niagara route recorded a sharp decline in readership, with only some 4,100 passengers. The lack of popularity of the route is in part linked to the steep decline of tourism and borders closing due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
