Hi Solorunner,
While I agree with most of your comments, I am finding part about “New Canadians†rather offensive.
I am one of those “New Ones†and I am too appalled by lack of heritage building preservation in this country and in Toronto in particular.
However, as you pointed as well, Ms Jane Pitffield was at position of power and decision making at that time. She does not look to me as “New Canadianâ€.
Problem with Toronto is that money talks and if you do have enough of it, you can have your way regardless of the bylaws (which can be changed on the spot), regardless of the heritage designation (that one can be changed as well).
One more thing:
How on earth you think that any “New Canadian†can have more power and political leverage than “Old Boys Club�
Regards,
Boris
