My big ideas:
- Trains back to Union Station. Cut and cover Colonel Driveby. Yes, it's expensive and messy. Do it.
- Get rid of the central Queensway. Bury the thing, from about Lees/Hurdman west to Parkdale. Build useful and productive green/open spaces, halls, museums, galleries, commercial spaces, over the buried freeway.
- O-Train into Gatineau. Start with Hull. By December. Of this year.
- Kill of Harper's dumbass monument to Communism and build the new Justice/Court building between the Supreme Court lawn and the National Library. Holt-style.
- Bring the Holt Plan up to date, and build new buildings downtown according to that.
- Rideau-Montreal LRT sooner, not later. Do it as a PPP, and let it capture LRT-related TOD tax revenues until the capital cost is paid off.
- Blow up the NAC and replace it with a new NAC that isn't a 1960s piece of brutalist crap.
- Blow up most buildings at Carleton and start over, for the same reason.
- Restore the cottage village that was destroyed to make the precious precious Ottawa River Parkway.
