There was an article in today's Toronto Star about streetcars that mentioned this recording in the CBC Archives of Mayor George Sharpe proclaiming the end of the streetcar era in Winnipeg in 1955. There is a discussion with the famous City bureaucrat D.I. MacDonald afterwards.

This article is on a similar topic.
