But it's exactly in the same state as the rest of the infrastrucures around the province. Not only in Montreal.
Problem isn't the resources, it's the lack of long term vision from past politicians. - Pecafan Fan
no the resources are a big problem which is why the city is now going around asking various levels of government for hundreds of millions to support its infrastructure. Champlain at the time it was built was basically a shipping lane as there was really nothing in the south shore other than probably Le Skratch. Vision is definitely lacking though that's for sure.
On the other hand you can't possibly convince me that a province holding three referendums on secession within 40 years and re-electing separatist parties over and over doesn't have anything to do with the fact that Montreal lost its place as the prime economic engine of the country.
It's not the only factor. The emergence of Asia has helped Vancouver a poopload but it sure didn't help Montreal to have the PQ around.

So over the last 40 years, and I'm not talking JUST about Montreal, nobody took care of our roads because Quebec might separate at some point?

what do roads have to do with this? - dt99999
roads, bridges, water system, whatever, it's all the same bullpoop.
Look at Montreal, they have like a thousand little mayors spread over the island, more (frank)ing personnel than the city of Toronto, and what do they do? A big, (frank)ing, nothing.

I'm more concerned about the fact that the (frank)ing Bank of MONTREAL is run out of Toronto.
