To be fair, it WOULD have cost them about what they paid for the bridge they built. They had to kick in that amount and the province would have funded the rest.
That's what I stated... the costs would have been the same to Clayton, SK. The Province would have funded the remainder.
They were trying to save the taxpayers money.
By building a bridge that is inadequate... not the smartest way to save money...
The idea that since the province pays for it it's free money is inane.
Said no one at all.... what's with the straw-man?
Anyway, who knows what went wrong, but apparently the company that built it has to replace it for free.
Apparently, it was an act of God... but an act of God would mean the builder wouldn't have to replace it on their own dime.... but they are...
The company that built it poorly for $3.7M now is going to build it better because they have to replace it themselves? I have a bridge to sell you....
