Today three guys (I think) were washing the interior windows of the Bay Street Bridge. I assume it will soon be handed over to whoever is managing it on an ongoing basis (CIBC or Union Station?) and that, when the escalators on the east side are finished, it will open.

I misjudged Mr Moise. He DID question staff on why it has taken them 5 year and more to bring a Report about permanent closure. SEE: https://secure.toronto.ca/council/#/committees/2466/27158 at the 4 hrs 47 minutes mark The Staff answer was 'we don't like the idea/we are not sure how to...

Similar to the use of Belarus which is closely related with the term Belaya Rus', i.e., White Rus'.

The help desk is staffed by Travellers' Aid currently, not sure if they did so in 1929. SEE; https://www.travelersaid.org/blog/tai-members/travellers-aid-toronto/ and https://www.travelersaid.org/about-us/history/
