[3529.62 --> 3530.58] You take |
[3530.58 --> 3531.60] Either highway 11 |
[3531.60 --> 3532.90] Or highway 400 |
[3532.90 --> 3533.46] Extension |
[3533.46 --> 3534.98] And to get to |
[3534.98 --> 3535.54] Kilbear |
[3535.54 --> 3536.04] There was a |
[3536.04 --> 3536.92] Two lane road |
[3536.92 --> 3539.14] That was |
[3539.14 --> 3540.06] Eventually turned |
[3540.06 --> 3541.02] Into highway 69 |
[3541.02 --> 3542.34] And at some point |
[3542.34 --> 3543.72] In my young childhood |
[3543.72 --> 3544.52] The government of |
[3544.52 --> 3545.38] Ontario decided |
[3545.38 --> 3546.34] We are going to |
[3546.34 --> 3547.02] Turn this into |
[3547.02 --> 3547.94] A major highway |
[3547.94 --> 3549.74] And so northern |
[3549.74 --> 3550.40] Ontario is |
[3550.40 --> 3551.42] Canadian shield |
[3551.42 --> 3553.06] So it's hard |
[3553.06 --> 3554.62] Granite rock |
[3554.62 --> 3556.30] To take a |
[3556.30 --> 3557.02] Two lane road |
[3557.02 --> 3557.66] And turn it |
[3557.66 --> 3558.34] Into a |
[3558.34 --> 3559.04] Four lane |
[3559.04 --> 3559.64] Sometimes |
[3559.64 --> 3560.76] Six lane |
[3560.76 --> 3561.32] Highway |
[3561.32 --> 3563.46] Takes a lot |
[3563.46 --> 3564.46] Of work |
[3564.46 --> 3565.56] Particularly |
[3565.56 --> 3567.16] It takes a lot |
[3567.16 --> 3568.16] Of explosive |
[3568.16 --> 3569.32] Work |
[3569.32 --> 3570.22] And so over |
[3570.22 --> 3570.96] The next number |
[3570.96 --> 3571.50] Of years |
[3571.50 --> 3572.08] Every year |
[3572.08 --> 3572.62] We would drive |
[3572.62 --> 3572.88] Up to |
[3572.88 --> 3573.52] Kilbear Park |
[3573.52 --> 3574.50] And that section |
[3574.50 --> 3575.54] That was two lanes |
[3575.54 --> 3576.34] Would get shorter |
[3576.34 --> 3576.74] And shorter |
[3576.74 --> 3577.26] And shorter |
[3577.26 --> 3578.40] As the section |
[3578.40 --> 3579.22] That was four lanes |
[3579.22 --> 3579.78] Would get longer |
[3579.78 --> 3580.18] And longer |
[3580.18 --> 3580.62] And longer |
[3580.62 --> 3581.70] And we would drive |
[3581.70 --> 3582.54] Through these places |
[3582.54 --> 3583.44] That were just |
[3583.44 --> 3584.26] Sheer rock |
[3584.26 --> 3585.22] On either side |
[3585.22 --> 3586.22] Because it's easier |
[3586.22 --> 3587.48] To blow the rock up |
[3587.48 --> 3588.58] And build a flat road |
[3588.58 --> 3589.54] Than it is to try |
[3589.54 --> 3590.28] And move with the grade |
[3590.28 --> 3592.42] But what's amazing |
[3592.42 --> 3593.90] Is that in order |
[3593.90 --> 3594.58] For them to blow |
[3594.58 --> 3595.08] That rock |
[3595.08 --> 3595.82] They take this |
[3595.82 --> 3597.44] Like two inch drill |
[3597.44 --> 3598.50] And they core |
[3598.50 --> 3599.36] All the way |
[3599.36 --> 3600.42] Down the side |
[3600.42 --> 3601.16] And they pack it |
[3601.16 --> 3602.38] With an explosive |
[3602.38 --> 3603.16] And then they |
[3603.16 --> 3604.52] Fire off |
[3604.52 --> 3605.34] These charges |
[3605.34 --> 3606.56] Every two feet |
[3606.56 --> 3607.86] Or these core lines |
[3607.86 --> 3609.16] Like down the side |
[3609.16 --> 3609.64] Of the rock |
[3609.64 --> 3610.70] So that now |
[3610.70 --> 3611.82] When you drive there |
[3611.82 --> 3613.66] On the sheer cliff face |
[3613.66 --> 3614.88] There's these perfectly |
[3614.88 --> 3617.66] Semi-circular core lines |
[3617.66 --> 3619.02] Every two feet |
[3619.02 --> 3620.28] Going down |
[3620.28 --> 3621.18] Because that's |
[3621.18 --> 3622.62] Where the explosive |
[3622.62 --> 3623.66] Was |
[3623.66 --> 3625.42] The explosive |
[3625.42 --> 3627.58] Changed the face |
[3627.58 --> 3628.56] Of the earth |
[3628.56 --> 3630.08] The geography |
[3630.08 --> 3630.86] Of the region |
[3630.86 --> 3631.50] Was changed |
[3631.50 --> 3632.06] By this |
[3632.06 --> 3633.92] Dynamic power |
