There are so many priorities.

The transit hub right here in the downtown would be a huge priority for us.

He knows how things work here on the Humble and Fred show.

He says, I too have encountered many Americans here in Port Credit, usually on the golf course, interesting, saying the very same thing.

Oh, I'm so embarrassed about him.

I, like you, just shrug it off and smile and chuckle in agreement.

Nathan Phillips Square.

This idea of small neighborhood square, there aren't many, and so we created one in Port Credit, which is very successful [laughs].

And for a lot of years, it was a really, really good business.

So we had restaurants primarily in the Port Credit area, Also had some in Toronto downtown, had a bunch of different brands, which was a lot of fun.

You know, construction is something I grew up doing with my father.

Violet Whitney and William Martin live with a lovely real dog, a Shiba Inu named Isamu, and a go-to robotic dog made by the Chinese company Unitree.

For those who are listening who don't know who you are, who are you, where are you from, and what is your zodiac sign?

Okay, so I am from Port Credit.

It is in Mississauga, 25 minutes outside of Toronto.

If you kind of don't know who I am, which, like, pretty fair, I'm kind of just a random person.
