What evidence is there of public support for the Trail?
Over 100,000 Ontarians have invested in the Trans Canada Trail by purchasing metres of trail and raising a total of approximately $500,000 through individual and private donations. A recent cross-Canada survey demonstrated that 88% believe that the Trans Canada Trail is “good” > “excellent” for Canada. 80% of all Canadians live within 50 km. of the Trans Canada Trail – an estimated 25 million residents. In Ontario, there are 2,500 km. of registered trail (April, 2008).
