Power failures pick the worst time, without fail

Traffic woes in Sooke? Have you ever traversed the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Richmond, or tried going through the Massey Tunnel at 8 AM or 4 PM?

Built a few buildings with elevators. Several options available. All have emergency brakes. Most will drop you slowly to the next floor down. Most have emergency backup power that isn't as fast as regular power, but it will get you there.

I like the ones that only fail when you are trapped in the dark with a nympho.

We had an elevator drop in the Standard life building in Edmonton about 25 years ago. I didn’t hear much detail, no deaths but there was at least one broken leg.

North Saanich is probably better off, fewer trees more fields.

And way more expensive than Sooke.

Traffic has become really bad in Sooke due to road improvements and a huge increase in population with an infrastructure not capable of dealing with all that. But it's a beautiful area.

Vancouver Island, SW coast.

Jebus. Only 3-5 here, a little east of you.
But seriously, don't you all come here to retire in Victoria. It's an ugly rainy nasty hellhole. Terrible place. Stay away. Yes, you. Really.

Not to mention the man eating snakes and crows that will grab you children, dogs and cats and take them away to eat them. Very dangerous place where we live.
