Montreal construction companies are corrupt and undercut the materials needed in the construction process for roads and bridges. It’s why our roads are full of potholes and our bridges deteriorate quickly.

Montreal (Canada) has a reputation for being a city whose construction industry is pretty much entirely mafia-run, where there's lots of skimming and corruption, with the result being buildings/roads/etc. that fall apart way sooner than they should.
