| | | | 3 million to clean a window and make it open again? I think they were ripped off.
I was in there last week and wasnt stunned by the fantastic changes. The tunnel construction down by the north east end was a bit intriguing though.

Actually, the Canadian dollar is now worth about USD95¢.
In other words, a US payphone call costing USD¢50, would cost a visiting Canadian CAD53¢.

Yup up....by the end of the year, I can guarantee you, that the US and Canadian dollars will be 1:1; something that hasn't happened since the 1976 Montreal Games!
