Canada, and the entire west, will be destroyed from within. This transmitter is a waste of money.
I hope that local Kawartha Lakes Businesses will be able to qualify as subcontractors and service providers to what will ultimatley be some large General Contractor who is awarded the Federal Government contract for site clearing, civil works, aggregates, fencing, concrete, waste disposal and various trades.
