I can attest to the fact that since the bridge was built, at least one pane of glass is broken on any given week. For these panes to shatter as often as they do is not good. We live in Canada with harsh winter weather and we expect that exterior windows of a publically accessed building will withstand our winters. But hell, what more can you expect from Metrolinx but to continue to engage in contracts that bring inferior products to our stations. Metrolinx is about the most untransparent, incompetent government agency out there...and that's saying a lot given Government agencies in general act in about the same manner.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06825327571324041870noreply@blogger.com
