Re: Article “McGuinty cuts ribbon on ‘bigger, better hospital,’ which appeared in the Aug. 17 edition of Northern Life.

Big deal at (Sudbury Regional Hospital). The new part cost $225 million, and the whole boondoggle cost $360 million. How many years (did hospital construction take) again?

Compare this to the cost and timeframe (for) North Bay’s hospital.

All the left wingers who had anything to do with this mess were there, looking for brownie points.

We aren’t all that naive, and know what really went on. Northern Life should fill in the public.

There is nothing good about (Sudbury Regional Hospital). Ask those who worked on the construction. (They have) horror stories you would only read in MAD Magazine. Only in Sudbury, eh?
