Jeff:

Took about an hour to download...dial up at 26.4 isn't too swift.

Interesting about the airplane rides rotating on the midway behind the MV display.

I think that the track, as shown, most probably formed the pattern for Road and Transportation types for the highways in the GTA (Inside joke for fellow sufferers who have to traverse the god-awful pot hole ridden roads near the Toronto area).

Keith: I also noted the CGT having a problem. Wonder why they didn't demo the use of the winch?

Was the sign on the hoarding "Ford Motor Company of Canada"?

If it was, then cf p87 of Gregg's "Blueprint for Victory".

I guess, therefore that Toronto was then, as now, Liberally oriented?
