^ can we hire them to build us a bridge across the Fraser and Deas Slough? It'll be done by spring.

Not like the fucked up job our guys did with the two bailey bridges at the foot of Braid. Took them forever, then it still wasn't right. The Japanese could have built a crossing between Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland by that time. Gulololol.
