Why do they advertise it being gravel? Isn't it a given that it should be paved? What else would it be? Dirt?

Maybe Thunder Bay is like Regina, gravel would qualify as driveway and not parking on your lawn.

Fines starting at $250 proposed for Regina homeowners who have vehicles parked on lawn

In late 2004 in Moncton, New Brunswick, several customers at a Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce ATM were dispensed a total of 11 bills of Canadian Tire money instead of real bills. They were compensated by the bank

They should accept payment in Canadian Tire money for concession food and drinks.

I've never seen the exterior of the building before. How has that never been posted in the Ugly thread? So awful. What is with the stripes? It looks like a bad wedding cake.

I always hated the Canadian Tire Field. Words can not describe how much I despise the Canadian Tire Guy.

God, the Canadian Tire Centre looks like someone crushed POMO into a few basic elements and put it into a stadium.


Those are some brutal Calgary Mansardians.

I think I remember hearing about that before. So that's how it still looks? I'd hate to be the neighbours.

I always heard how crappy the Canadian Tire Centre was. I had no idea it was this bad.

Could Crappy Tire have slathered their name on any thicker?



Is it situated in a farmer's field?







Apparently the Canadian Tire guy is now a wildlife photographer:

While the Canadian Tire Centre is pure shit, the name was more Scotiabanks fault.
