What are you basing that on? It's going to depend on the specific materials. Also importing when the dollar is weak generally makes things more expensive. There is a very good chance some of the materials are being sourced from outside of Canada meaning that currently it would cost more for the materials. That being said labour is technically cheaper right now and that will be a large portion of the cost.

 

Sure Lipchitz, map me out the material, and I'll slap you down a ballpark figure, you can get anything you want in our great country, don't be absurd.

Agreed, although I've had plenty of great memories, especially through my 18 to 22 years.

 

They are only memories if you can remember them, meat

Nope hasn't happened...though I have seen people jiggle themselves around a bit, like the dad sits behind me and the kid takes his seat. Actually I think it's the people in front who have a worse time. Knees to the head and all. Back when the Jays weren't popular and the row in front of me was empty, the seats are perfectly built so my legs can usurp that space.

 

Haha I know, I love putting my feet in the next row.

You can get anything you want but that doesn't mean the materials weren't imported or that the raw materials weren't exported, processed and then imported back in to Canada.

Good time. All prices are down for material.

Please stop.

If anything Canada's exporting on demand.

Spanky works construction. He would know whether the costs generally go up or generally go down in these scenarios. That's all I really wanted to know when I asked the question.

He has no idea what the materials they need area and working construction does not mean you have any idea of the cost of materials. I'm sure he knows how to source materials and provide a quote but w/o knowing the materials how can he say it's cheaper? Lots of the big construction materials have increased in price. Steel has gone up, concrete has gone up. That's basically what makes up the RC, steel and concrete. We're also talking about improving a stadium something I'm guessing Spanky has absolutely 0 experience with.

Seeing as Rogers paid peanuts for the land plus the Stadium, they'll be in the black forever.

Lol where the f*** have you guys been sitting? I'm 6'4 and I've never had a problem with the seat sizes. Some people just complain about everything.
