As a reader, it's a painful process to read your post as one first interprets your first sentence to state that all siding should be banned. There's steel siding, there's composite siding, there's cedar siding, there's cement siding, there's aluminum siding, there's vinyl siding, etc. To say siding, without specifying which type, how can anyone know what you were specifically talking about.

Then the reader is just confused when you start stating that "hardy(sic)" will last longer, as "hardy(sic)" is a type of siding. Longer than what?

Oooooooooooooh, VINYL siding? Well why didn't you just type those five letters.

Were you following along the thread. Everyone was talking about vinyl siding.

You're nothing but a pedantic troll who follows me around and makes stupid comments.

Pierre or Justin? Please specify next time so we know who you're talking about. It's s painful reading this without you specifying who you're talking about.

Apparently the flight was only delayed a couple hours too. How???

Hopefully at least some of you were able to catch flights ok that night, since it sounds like some WestJet flights still got out ok.

Judging by the cancellation lists, it looked to me like WJ flights into and out of B were cancelled and not any others.

We are still sorting out the cancellation we got, hopefully will be one day delay only. Probably on Air Canada.

I wasn't putting it past you to actually suggest all siding be banned, so perhaps it's your post (and banning) history influencing that.

You're obsessed. Want to subscribe to my OF?

Everyone calm down and get back to agreeing on the idea that building an envelope for houses out of plastic is preposterous.

And you wonder why you keep getting banned...

It's not your business. You've been following my posts around for months making dumb comments. PM me If you have a problem that we can solve together.

That's quite the exaggeration or you must be confusing me with someone else.

I prefer irreparably damaging my mental health by raw dogging every post on here.

They do have restrictions on installation, like keeping it above the ground a bit and rooflines need flashing and spacing. Nothing I ran into was an issue. I primed and painted all my cut ends on the garage. When I did my house they have a new product, the pro line that has lapping on the ends, so it's even better to install and goes up quick.

I do know they had a lot of failures in the 90's that gave it a bad name, but all those issues should be resolved.

Hmm interesting because my house is from 2010, but if that’s the building code ruling on it, it would make sense.

I know from driving through my community there’s at least 8 homes on the main drag with the same issues I had. It’s a smokers patio over the garage that had the walls built out of LP products (I think?) where the walls went right down to the floor of the deck. Over the years it softened the walls to the point I could poke my finger through the rotted portions. That ended up leaking into my garage and partially (but not significantly enough) soaked a main support beam. If that needed replacing it would have been 10s of thousands to repair.

Took a little stroll through the now cordoned off Concourse B, water damage is extensive.

The other big problem here is the 7-8 WestJet planes beached with hail damage, when they were already short planes to operate the summer schedule as is. Cancellations are going to drag on for a while.

We can operate fine without the Concourse B gates to reiterate, not a bad time to nuke the whole concourse and start over, honestly. But we have no money.

Few, if any, would disagree.

Who's "we" in this case? Can I reasonably use this opportunity to complain about funding the new arena again?

You obviously know they mean “airport operations”.
