Flour Cinq Roses. Bonjour/Hi.
Hamilton does have some gems, especially the Pigott Building.

Nice shot. Saskatoon looks bigger than its population would suggest.

Honestly as the CMA closes in on 400,000 in the next few years I agree the skyline needs 1 or 2 more prominent new additions or else we'll be falling behind for a city our size.
Here's a fairly ordinary shot of the Vancouver skyline from the East, yesterday evening. The building with the two cranes is the new St. Paul's hospital.
To me this is a perfect skyline. I don't mean it's the best skyline out there, it's just that the proportions are perfect. Scale, topography, mix of styles and something unique. It doesn't look like any other place but QC.

Nah. It's not a competition. Some treat it as such, but I don't see it that way.
