Yup, one thing we don't lack in Vancouver: Dumb City officials, and greedy and visionless owners. That's why Hotel Dunsmuir was gutted.

Lots of money, creativity and care taken by people in the past to create beautiful things worth preserving were summarily destroyed so that the next generations do not know how to appreciate nice things here.
