Is there any shop in Wpg or nearby town that still turn rotors?

I was wondering if you might respond with that suggestion. Its almost a lost service nowadays, just buy new rotors and slap them on.

In Ontario the overhead to run the average shop is out of control and a big factor why no one wants to turn rotors or drums any more. People do not want to pay for the absurd cost to do it so buying new rotors and drums makes more cost effective sense.

The problem is, all the new rotors are Chinese and rust almost instantly. It's amazing.
