It realize I sound very negative, but I am totally justified to be so pessimistic. We are going nowhere fast. Things must change!

Pauvre Montreal!


In general MTL is doing OK and has built some nice things in the last few years.

But if you're talking about the high-rise department.....



BTW what ideas could Montreal take from Vancouver?
