There's no need to apologize for anything.

Well said - what we should be wondering now is why we didn't spend the extra million or two and light up the underside as well.

This lighting fixture will become an icon of Toronto. It makes the bickering over a few million dollar seem a little silly.
They could have funneled more money to homeless shelters, housing repairs or childcare subsidies, but instead, the city spent $2.8 million lighting the Prince Edward Viaduct. From the start, it was a decision mired in controversy with critics, including Mayor John Tory, picking at the cost, the time and the necessity of it all. But on the evening of July 4, when the historic Bloor bridge that opened in 1918, will be awash with colour for the first time, artist Dereck Revington hopes those grumbles will fade.
I understand where some people are coming from. There is money for this but no money to put a shelter at the bus stop.
