Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... Parliament Building scam
Ahhh... got a PM re the term "fascia" in a post of mine above. Apparently, this term is not commonly used in some jurisdictions. If I had used "veneer", it may have been equally confusing to some as it mainly is applied to "thin" materials like brick.

To clarify, albeit still semi-vague, the recent masonry repairs which were done were shite and have to be done again.

We now return to regular programming...

I think the programming by PWGSC and the politicians is a load of shite. What is needed is engineers who will stand up to the bureaucrats and politicians and say no more bullshit, no more graft... I am gonna do my job and if you wanna change my written words which are stamped under profession seal, go ahead BUT you sign it and date it and have it notarized and I want two original copies.

Been there, done it, got the t-shirt. The t-shirt says "This man will never work for any Federal, Provincial or Municipal government Again."

BTW, I never was fired. I got out rather than lose my dignity, integrity and sanity... from all three levels of government. I could not take the crap. I could not eat at the trough any more and sleep well at night.
