I see the mayor is using the opportunity to whine about not getting enough money from the Province and from Ottawa. London is becoming more like a mini-Toronto all the time.
exactly...and the same bunch of people who approved spending something like $1 million on flowers for western road (the road needed to be widened and paved, but they didn't have to spend all that money on "decorations")...and lets not forget about the metal trees, that were "planted" around the downtown area...more large chunks of money all to appease the "artsy fartsy" crowds.

Don't forget the artsy farsty "Welcome to London" rock garden at Oxford and Airport Rd.

yup...that's what bothers me...they complain about not having enough money for some things, which are important, yet toss money at crap like that...i have nothing wrong with making a nice rock garden welcoming people to london, but not when other needs are more pressing.

look at the irony now...a beautiful "Welcome to London" rock garden...then when you reach downtown, a 15M sinkhole because much of our infrastructure is in dire need of replacing...not much of a "Welcome to London" there.
