Canadian skyscrapers are utilitarian and functional, with little regard for flair, elegance, style.

The result: 80% of architecture in Canada is coma inducing. That said, I don't think the photos selected by dleung were fair but new Australian/British buildings are more aesthetically pleasing overall.
