3. Didn't cost the tax payers one cent (except for all the guys they hired and paid to watch)
4. My lawyer in Calgary drew up the contract and handled the negotiations
5. I know the guy that built it; he's an amazing engineer with a business mind
6. I've yet to see it myself, but I will one day.

Why does the bridge have that jog in it?
