Edmonton has a decent amount of slab residential from the 60s and 70s outside the core. I always think that's more of an Ontario thing, but Edmonton and, well, Winnipeg, prove that it's common elsewhere.

Are those modern towers in the middle student res? How many of these towers are student res?

Never.

I can live with Le Concorde which isn't too bad a modernist incursion on the skyline. But I hate Marie Guyart (Complexe G).
How about a reclad of Complex G? Terrace de la Chaudière style?

Some many different eras are represented in the Quebec City skyline from the 1700s to the 1970s, but count me in as someone who thinks were missing one or two 20ish floor modern towers, but I would settle for a reclad of at least one of the 70s brutalist towers, preferably Complexe G because I'm actually fond of the three hotels.
