It is really nice to see Don Hopkins raking his front yard at 400 Laura Ave. (at the 16 minute mark in the video). Wouldn't we all like to be that young again. The video is a great presentation of the early history of Sudbury.

Born and raised in the Sudbury Region, I've since decided to relocate. While I love learning about the history of my hometown, it also makes me miss being there. I absolutely loved this video and appreciate everything I've learned from it. Thanks for sharing. No matter how far I roam, Sudbury will always be home.

[@OttawaShuttleBus]

Really well researched and written. That was the Sudbury I grew up in. It included a few home I used to deliver the Northern Life to. Wonderful share.

[@michaelcharlong5645]

Thanks for posting these gems. They are time capsules. 😊

[@robertageo7338]

Oh what I would give for this town to be like that agen

[@maxtax8223]

oh what i would give to have a few cold one's at the coulson and eat some of Dino's popcorn on the way home...

[@bitter-bit]

No one would give anything. That's the reason the city fell. No money and no help.

[@rogerblake1289]

The reason the city is falling, is because lazy people are pandered to. Welfare state rewards laziness by paying more $ per offspring. Back in ‘Boomer days’ they earned their living legitimately. TRY IT!!

[@amajude]

@@rogerblake1289 People who are unable to provide for themselves are not lazy, nor are they the reason for a city falling apart. Not every single person is able bodied, or have the resources to stay afloat. It's extremely ignorant to assume every single person has the same opportunities. You're coming from a very closed minded perspective. Educate yourself.

[@acecchetto]

This was awesome to watch, thank you for sharing!

luv how Prof Pearson notes the 1856 activities of Murray of the Geological Society ... did Logan ( and and his sub Murray ) ask Salter to double check on some Geological Surveyor site ? In other reports Murray notes Salter as having assisted him and his crew greatly when their steamer had become useless. Salter helped them back to ( Killarney ) Shibahahaning where an old trading post once existed and where the Collin ( and a Murray group ) had forestry interests near Collin's Inlet....

[@maxtax8223]

Sudbury... Worthington married secondly after spending time near St Mary's ( see St Mary's ) and went to work with the railroaders who sent him to build an extension north of Nipissing lake... his section of line basically moved along the Salter ( see Windsor and Lambton ) baseline created in the 1850's. They named the Junction near the Creighton mineral anomaly located by Salter as Sudbury ( this vid ) in honor of the Hitchcock ( second inlaws of Worthington ) .... so on ... these vids rock but they might be slightly biased on the promoters imo - Creighton fault opened c1902 when INCO became a corporation.... Falconbridge became a corporation in 1927 when Canadian National became a corporation.. INCO and Falconbridge controlled nickel ( mineral prices ) while CP and CN ruled the Canadian hauling prices...

I'm an immigrant living in Toronto Who got fed up with the problems big cities are facing, cost of living, crime rate, high competition , rude people I wish one day someone I'll be able to move out of Toronto to live a happy life

[@bitter-bit]

Boomers really did just enjoy everything and take it all with them. So sad watching this place fall apart due to greed.

[@beavercreekpictures9809]

It's so hard to escape gentrification.

[@rogerblake1289]

How do you figure? Did you see the part of the video where hard work was involved by people who had nothing to begin with? Do you think your living is owed to you while you lay back and complain on your smartphone?

[@dartalienguard]

Yea it’s run by greed now! From the mayor to the police chief to the health department to the lowest form of council this city’s EVER seen. Not to mention the douche canoes that support this.

[@SteveTheGhazaRooster]

@@rogerblake1289 the main difference that people convey in the wrong way, is that jobs were given to boomers on silver platters. Not just jobs either, full blown careers. Many of which required no further education, now it's essentially required. Would all be fine if the education system didn't put people into lifelong debt. With souring housing costs and record high inflation. Yeah, what do us young folk have to complain about? We have smartphones after all!

[@metcas]

@@rogerblake1289 What a comment, just wow. The majority of us 20-30 year olds are desperate for work, but the jobs out there currently demand far too much while providing far too little. Even then, even at $25/hour, with rents and mortgages as they are, a lot of us are now forced to room with others to have any chance of saving money. So screw right off with your sentiment. It's completely nonsensical.

[@greensombrero3641]

OPEN PIT ORE ROASTING! OMG! IN HINDSIGHT! GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU!

[@Caareenkm6726]

This is a very old video! Sudbury looks a lot better now!

[@Cratercitysmith]

[@doveseye.4666]

Railroad and the US destroyed Sudbury, I didn’t forget!😢

[@goofydangernoodle]

ngl this vid may or may not have doxed me

[@simbajohn1882]

Outlying areas nice. Sudbury is run down, downtown shabby, petty crime, panhandlers all over, roads all over sudbury so bad they will damage car. Go to espanola instead. Far prettier and safer
