I cannot find a link for it online...

The part about the hotel is about 20 minutes in

I've clipped out the segment and mounted it here -

Oh my God, rthomasd! THANK YOU!!!

And great interview, Jeddy. I love how we all hammered the same core points and added some of our own. It's just one of those things we need to do... if enough people are saying... "Develop the Downtown West End!", then it just becomes common sense.

Thank you!!!

Yep. I think we did a lot out there last time with 3. I truly hope we can have 4 or 5 next time. The "Steel-Toed Boot Crowd" should absolutely be a thing.

It is a thing. We got this, yo. *Gang sign*

And you should pick one noun for it and stick to it.

So far you've said Squad, Brigade, and Crowd.

god I need a tan and a hair cut .. and hitting the gym wouldn't hurt

Oh, no worries there, Jeddy. If I may, you look smokin' in your interview. Don't stress.

Hi, I'm never sure how people will react when video is posted, hope you don't mind me posting it. You did a great job. I have the CBC footage (with Signal) I can post if there's any interest ?

Go for it - but PLEASE choose a shot of Fougere for the thumbnail,

I'm extremely happy you posted it! I couldn't find it online and friends and family of mine wanted to see it so I posted it to my Facebook as well as now it is here. I'm very appreciative!

Maybe we can post both videos to the first post of the steel boot thread as well

Why stick with one noun when we can have ALL THE NOUNS?

Ok, here's the two clips from the CBC coverage of the forum. I've left the clips together as one as they are self-referencing.

SignalHillHiker · #**134** Posted **Feb 15, 2013, 6:03 PM**

I never got to see the Here and Now version of the coverage. Wow, CBC openly said "mostly positive". Excellent.

Also, I haven't seen that anchor before but, wow, does she ever come across as a sweetheart? She just seems so nice. I can picture getting a lecture from her for one of my inappropriate jokes.

niccanning · #**135** Posted **Feb 15, 2013, 6:08 PM**

I am confused - the image shown at 2:11 looks like it's 5ish high?

SignalHillHiker · #**136** Posted **Feb 15, 2013, 6:12 PM**

Yeah, they just squat it up a bit - it happens. But, also, each window spans two floors to make it look shorter. And the glass on top is two additional floors.
