don't worry, you'll see blatchford first, in whatever form it takes or doesn't before you'll see this one, never mind three more...
and i still don't quite get it.
the total cost of this project is 1.4 million and it's received as much exposure as blatchford where we walked away from who knows how much more than that in design fees alone in the last year for something we're not going to do because something less is good enough for us...
and this one isn't even proposed to start construction for another six years (2020) because "it might get damaged as part of the lrt construction in the meantime".
by that reasoning we shouldn't have done jasper avenue either because we tore it up before it was even finished for a bunch of 1" steel plates every hundred feet or so covering something, i'm not sure what or why.
and maybe we could have just put temporary barricades up and down 108th street without bothering to do anything first and saved all that money.
and maybe we shouldn't have marketed our tunneling expertise to the rest of the world because we "only" made a 10% return on almost $30 million dollars in work utilizing equipment and resources we already owned and will continue to own. that only would have built the improvements under discussion here two and half times over in the next six years. assuming of course it won't cost any more in 2020 than it will today.
and we're going to get out of the tunneling business where we made a buck and open up a land and building development business because we all know easy it is to do that right and profitably.
and yes, i'm actually having a good day today but there's a theme here that i'm afraid is the tip of an iceberg i really don't want to run into.
