(CNN) A retiree in Toronto was unhappy with the length of time the city was taking to build a flight of stairs on a precarious slope.

And so he did it himself -- at a fraction of the cost.

Adi Astl, with the help of a homeless man he hired, built eight steps for $550, more than 100 times cheaper than the $65,000-$150,000 the city had estimated for the job.

B-b-b-but where is the environmental impact report?  Where is the multi-year study on how these stairs will impact global warming?  Where are the kickbacks to the union bosses and the politicians?
