It's owned by a federal Crown corporation, the Canada Lands Company (CLC).

Geesh.<br><br>They probably need to use that lone windmill standing next to it to generate the power for it, leaving the actual city block that rely on said windmill powerless. <br><br>Here's another suggestion to my government, you should have put the LEDs on the windmill so that it would display messages or pictures..... at a really really slow rotating speed.   XD   Ok, my idea is bunk. But still.... 2.4 million?!?!<br><br>Hooray for light-up phallic monuments.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeebus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 9:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toronto's CN Tower gets lit up with LEDs]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/torontos-cn-tower-gets-lit-up-with-leds/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/torontos-cn-tower-gets-lit-up-with-leds/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't see why everyone is bitching about the price. Sure it's expensive but Toronto is a pretty damn fine city (financially, among others) and The CN Tower is a (if not THE) main landmark of the city. It hasn't change technologically in years (except for added bomb-sniffing security), it was inevitable that it need a face-lift. And, personally, I think it's rather groovy. I was at Centre Island and saw it perfectly at night. Just breathtaking. <br><br>And yeah, go Toronto. Woo-hoo! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 9:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toronto's CN Tower gets lit up with LEDs]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/torontos-cn-tower-gets-lit-up-with-leds/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/torontos-cn-tower-gets-lit-up-with-leds/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's cool.... as long as it's not from the taxpayers' money.
