Son works at a company on Borden Ave /Coutland . Was expropriated by the city recently along with the company beside them. One is already vacated ready to be demolished. Theirs will be as soon as the city builds their new building in another area of the city within 2 years. No choice gotta go. The other end of Borden is also being demolished. If they want it they take it. Houses out by the 401 are expropriation already for LRT.

The widening of highway 8 under Franklin boulevard took a bunch of houses, businesses and a street.
I would say it's likely a provincial decision where to build the hospital since health care is under their jurisdiction.
Our region really lacks the appropriate sized hospital with the specialized equipment that it needs. Too many of our serious health issues are shipped off to places like Hamilton and London.
Heard they want to put in a new directors lounge with a massage parlor, bar and hot tub in the expansion. 
I thought they already had this?Not sure how the Record article about expanding the Aud to 10 thousand blew into a Regional thing about the new hospital. Guess it's the boring off season and fills the void.
I still think that stretch along the LRT from Mill to Hayward would be the ideal location for a new arena. I know someone on here mentioned that they want a London model where the arena would support the downtown business but with the "mini community" going up in the old Schneiders land, I could see the businesses "coming to the Aud" with the right zoning.
I heard 53 and that the proposed site will be announced in September. Once built, St. Mary's would be closed and the land dedicated to other needs in the community (read into what you like...)
As age goes. I’d probably prefer an 07. But I’m not so concerned about drafting an 06. I know the goal is to be elite by 2027. But if our 07 group is as good as it’s supposed to be, we will have a pretty good team in 25–26 as well. Likely a post season home ice calibre team. If we were to draft an 06 import, and he reports and is high end, that helps the 25–26 team big time. Gets us experience in the postseason etc. etc. Then next year‘s import draft, maybe you draft an 07 or 08. Then by the time 26–27 rolls around, that import would be in his 18-year-old season, Sale’s age this year, and would be a big part of that team.
What exactly is involved in repurposing the land from an old hospital? I believe it's a brownfield site. In the Soo, our new hospital has been open for ~15 years and the old site has not been repurposed yet. I think there is a lot more to it than just knocking it down and building whatever you want in it's place.
Could be. Someone wants to come in. Interesting tidbit.
The Mayor says in the article that I read that sellouts have been the exception as opposed to the rule, so they feel a makeover is more important than growing the capacity. Would tend to agree.
They did apply to house the Toronto Rock during the Hamilton arena situation. Makes the most sense
I would love to see the NLL here. I know that before hamilton allowed the Rock to come back that they were going to play in Mississauga so I wonder if that means that has fallen through for next season.
Probably the Knights. Dale wants back in Kitchener
I don't blame him. He does have Ranger blue blood piping through his veins. That's what makes him such a great coach. Once a Ranger always a Ranger. I heard he screams Go Rangers in his sleep.
