That bridge over the gorge in Coaticook scared the shit out of me. But Foresta Lumina was awesome. Magical even.

I need to get to Newfoundland. It's landscapes and architecture don't feel like part of this country. And that airport is looks like a 1960's movie set. Amazing.

Airport is ALL Canada. Flights had to stop to refuel in Gander, which had the airport you'd expect of middle-of-nowhere-Newfoundland-1960s. Canada started to gain an internationally bad reputation (everyone from that era had to stop there for hours whenever they flew to Europe; Elvis, Marilyn, Castro, you name them, they spent days in Gander) as hicks in the bush. So the federal government built that masterpiece. Everything in it is the very best, most famous names of that era.

Montreal is so gorgeous. I would love to see a 1000 ft tower built there.

More Coaticook! The creamery and the brewery are right across from each other. Both were jammed on the day we were there.











And there was QC Stonehenge and mini Stonehenge!

Not gonna happen as long as people abandon the idea that nothing can be taller than a 700 foot mole hill.

Do you know if there is a clear majority of Montréal Skyscraper fans that would agree to get rid of the actual maximum height?

I think that the only 5 people in MTL that care about having a Big Erection are on this site. Maybe a few more on MTLurb.

You guys on the forum can can change that.

SSPers from Edmonton successfully changed Edmonton's perception of the municipal airport forcing it to close. We now have a number of proposals and two towers under construction that are above the previous height limit.

We're a little busy influencing the Middle East peace talks and Paris Climate Agreement at the mo. Maybe you guys could get on it?

Seems vitally important.. Extra floors.. God knows why..

You shouldn't be surprised that people on a skyscraper site want more skyscrapers.
