We Should ask why this concerted effort to destroy old buildings and old architecture of this city?
Who are the peoples behind it?
Are these buildings erased form the public consciousness?
Canada is a large Country. There is plenty of space. Why not build beside them ?
Why were these buildings destroyed?
In Europe they would have been rebuilt. Have we lost the ability to build such artistic buildings?
Has the consciousness of people something to do with it?
When people see beauty the spirit is uplifted. Is the reverse also true?
