this poop's not being build before 2138

At this point, I wish for two things:

1) That the actual Champlain bridge doesn't collapse while people are still on it.

2) That I get to see the new bridge before I die.

I'm not schooled in engineering or construction, but does it really take 8 years to build a bridge?

They haven't picked the design yet, then there is the whole environmental issue being over the St-Lawrence. Best case scenario, construction won't start until 2016-2017

my main point was that he seemed to have trouble staying with forwards taking him to the outside. that's more of a footwork thing and plenty big guys while maybe slow have a better time going from backwards to front. but i'm no pro scout so i likely was watching apollo ohno with a stick in his hand and didn't realize it.

i understand that. and i'm not arguing that he's a poop skater. i was just saying that he's apparently been a poop skater his entire career and still been effective. sean, on the other hand, is just being an ass. it's what he does.

That would make sense then, transitioning in speed skates is not easy.
- CaptainK

i thought of that almost right away. should have gone Brian Boitano for that one.

He built his reputation while he was playing with Dan Boyle. He lost a major step since then.

No but it is being built in Quebec which means that it will take 3x longer than it should...

It's all taken care of already.

They will start building the bridge where the old one is supposed to collapse. So when that happens, they will simply build a jump just before the collapsed part of the old that will lead you on the new.

The 500m is the equivalent of the 100m at the summer Olympics.

In 2011, we had a major boost in membership (after the Vancouver Olympics). Apparently it's always like that.

If they haven't even picked a bridge design yet, it will take atleast a year to detail design it.

took about 2 years to build the one across the St.Lawrence Seaway for the Highway 30. It's pretty big

They are awarding the contract for that part in November but it's PWGSC who is handling the contract part so expect countless delays and screw ups
