Highway 1 - Kamloops to Alberta - Current Projects - Province of British Columbia
There is still 90 miles from Revelstoke to Golden through the Selkirk mountains that has barely been touched yet. That piece in itself is a 20 year project! That stretch includes 7 snow sheds. Start thinking in the tens of billions of dollars for just that 90 miles.
Do you have any idea what the f**k you are talking about?

A year ago but my friend drives it all the time. There's still 300 km. to complete.
Perhaps the following will be helpful, Petros
"In total, there are 337 kilometres of Highway 1 between Kamloops and the Alberta Border under provincial control (with Parks Canada responsible for the remaining 103 kilometres). Four-laning that much highway is a long-term effort, and there’s currently no timeframe for completing the entire route. However, the Province is committed to improving the safety and reliability of the corridor and has committed $650 million over 10 years to do so."
$650 million is just a drop in the bucket of what it will take to complete it!
I don't know much about this Scheer, but there's something definitely wrong should Justin win another term. About the best thing that can be said about him is he has some ability to go with the flow! He's shown very little ability for original thinking. He can't really even grasp simple concepts as is proven by his conception that splitting cabinet posts 50/50 according to gender is showing fairness whereas anyone with an I.Q. of 90 knows that dividing cabinet posts up among those who are most qualified is the only really fair way of doing it. He can't seem to even grasp that the main purpose of government is to get a job done and enact needed legislation, not to make highly paid caucus feel good about themselves. The reason there is the appearance of good fiscal management right now is because he's virtually abandoned infrastructure.
"Haters" is not the correct term, Boomer! I can even have some respect for people I hate. "Seeing through" someone is not the same as hating them.
Scheer was 23 when I met him campaigning. He is a smart,articulate and compassionate person.
He slaughtered long time NDP MP Lorne Nystrom at the polls, was the youngest appointed Speaker of the House and now the youngest Party Leader. He set out with the goal of being PM in grade school and dedicated his life to doing it and will.
We are on a first name basis and chat every Sunday at Church when he isn't in Ottawa.
He helped me advocate getting pogey for an elderly lady who is 80 and still working, 4 disabled people get the Disability Tax Credit and RSDP, another secure loans for a start up through the Western Economic Diversification Canada.

That's six km. to be completed in 2018, Pete, with 40 km to start later- nothing to do with Rogers Pass. That highway won't be complete before 2035!
You are correct I miss read it, AB border to Golden will be finished in 2018. The remaining 6km is the last piece of Kicking Horse. A whopping $110M per Km.
Yep, makes you wonder, back about 1957 the most expensive mile in North America was built for about $2.6 million. That was at Hell's Gate in the Fraser Canyon. Excavation of solid rock at the time was about $1.60 a yard.
It's igneous rock in the canyon which is a hell of a lot more stable than that metamorphic in Kicking Horse.
I guess it's hard to beat Granite and Basalt, eh? (Whatever that has to do with Justin being a raging homo)
My friend who was one of the top highway designers for many year estimates it won't be done before 2051. I'm inclined to agree. I don't think during the past 20 years they haven't completed more than about 3 km. a year on average.
