Strathroy -where you belong !
I found this tape at the old Rogers Community TV station in Strathroy I was working at before it closed down- I was doing all duties, camera, reporting, editing, ect. I took it as it was going to be thrown out. It was video taped in the early 90's and was kind of repackaged a few years later. Incidentally since the video was made, the town has changed drastically. It no longer has a vibrant down town core as clearly shown in the video, as Walmart opened in the Town 5 years ago and it has predictably hindered competition in the town business district.
@lonerick1 don't be sorry! I totally agree with you. I feel it does reflect that year it was video-taped..around 1992. but yeah things went to shit. There were always rockers/greasers that smoked tons of Oil, but they were superceded by street urchin wiggers doing crystal meth starting around 1997ish. Then Wal Mart came in and the downtown is a disgrace. I grew up in the country so that was a salvation compared to the town, which at one time was nice.

I'm sorry I once lived in Strathroy Ontario and this video IS NOT about that place. Not enough druggies.
