I don't think for a second that Cameron actually cares a whole lot about Black history (or medical history), and this is clearly just an opportunity to dress up anti-development sentiment in more acceptable clothing.

Having said that, I'm not actually against heritage designation here--it seems to be in decent repair with much of its Victorian characters still intact, has a legitimate claim to historical interest and importance, and is a fairly significant character-defining building in the area. I would actually be in favour of designating this, even if Cameron's interests in doing so are probably less about history and more about preventing tall buildings from being constructed.
