Hi all.....

Nice to see this thread still circulating
Was wondering if anyone was becoming 'concerned' about all the roadwork/construction in the city this last year?! OMG !! Any street you tried to get down - you'd either have to navigate another 10 blocks out of your way or be caught in backed up traffic forever! It was infuriating and frustrating - beyond belief. Heaven help if the city needed to be evacuated! Good Luck! Major gridlock! Sometimes I wonder how many other cities are doing this or having this problem .....is it just my imagination....or is this part of the 'master plan' ?!

Also... one day last summer chemtrails and a 'god awful smell' prevailed. When I went into a store, there were 5 CT's overhead....by the time I got out (maybe 15-20 min), there were another 4!!!

Really have to get out of this city! Now with 2 new LRT routes planned (construction going ahead) AND god forbid we actually GET the 'world fair' (MORE construction).....that'll be the end of us! Let me OUT!

Anyone else have thoughts?

two years later and the thread is comming alive!! I don't come in very often anymore. A bit dissapionted actually that more people were not pushed into action of sorts between 911, banker bailouts,automaker bailouts,now climategate cap and trade crap! when do we start to stand up and take something back for the little guy's & gal's!
Anyways good to see some locals keep it up!

I have really wondered about the construction on 100 ave from 170 street to the hendy it's all underground and it too like two years? Not that that is suspcious but who pays for that??
