I was going to say earlier that Victoria's cathedral is almost the opposite of the one in Halifax. They are both pretty similar but the one in Victoria has a much nicer facade and a better location, so it looks much more impressive in person from the outside.
Yes. Understated on the inside but still very strong and gothic on the outside.
