      its so true, and yet when I talk to american friends who live in smaller cities they are envious of the urban development that occurs here even. Sad state of affairs in North America

        As USian, can confirm. So much infrastructure and even buildings is from the 1970’s, at best. We’re still actively poisoning ourselves with lead pipes ffs.

      Moved back to my small Ontario town after like a decade away a couple years back and it’s all virtually the same (except with way more empty storefronts downtown, thank god we give landlords a tax break for letting them stand vacant!).
