I worked on building those tunnels…at least I’m glad it wasn’t the tunnel building as the main contributor.

Fun times on those machines. Made some good friends and memories I recall fondly to this day.

3am bbq inside the tunnel when no one’s around …

Was it St Clair that I hated?
It’s been a long while and I haven’t been back.

Probably Yonge/Eglinton.

Can’t all be work work work work work.

Gotta keep up the morale of the miners. Those guys work their *** off…

Well some did. The rest just collected their 150k to sling a shovel.

Good times wrenching in the mines, I've been from the Yukon to NF and Labrador and every place in between. Oh and yes i worked my ass off, If you didn't you would be shown the gate pretty quick

My child-hood home that I visit regularly is around Mt. Pleasant and Eglinton. Quite the experience for my folks and I. Don't even recognise the area anymore.

And then we question why things cost so much. It's a concrete cube. Just start again for far less money and better function. That should have been an easy cut from the wishlist.

We've demolished more important architectural sites. Historic sites in Canada, especially Ontario, equate to new subdivisions in Europe.

Yeah exactly, what the hell are the preserving, there is no historical significance to that building. I've been to that office, it's noting like the one they have in Rochester. Unless there were a lot of chemical dumping in the ground.

When is the Ai gov starting up....ffs
