This is all skytrain's fault.
Skytrain is so expensive that the excavators had to cheap out on amatures.

Nice footage, but did it really need a soundtrack?

I noticed a Georgia Straight paper box in the video, if you could make a conspiracy theory out of this, props to you.

Are you upset about this incident? Why not write a letter to the city, to Worker's Comp, etc. Both are investigating. Both need to hear from us.
Maybe you can demand that this company is prohibited from doing business in our city ever again. Do you think that the only reason innocent people (employees or passers by) didn't die in this incident was pure luck? To me it looks like pure luck and nothing but. Twice in a row. Would you not learn after the first mistake? Should you ever be allowed to do business in our city again if you didn't learn after the first almost deadly mistake?
