People dredge up my past shit on here literally on a weekly basis. Me doing it once in a general sense not targeting anyone is fine.

Seriously, what does anything about skyscrapers have to do with capitalism like it's a bad thing? How can you be a skyscraper fan and hate the thing that makes them possible?

I see a lot of the world's tallest skyscrapers that were built by the state; indirectly or directly. The first skyscrapers took their cues from the grand steeples, spires and, pyramids. If anything, we could have taller skyscrapers in Canada if it wasn't left to private enterprise. Civic pride and prestige doesn't have barriers like profit margins.

@DanHarperPhoto
The @RRMTrail looks incredible while it winds around the river bends. No wonder it's officially the longest skating trail in the world!!!

The @RBCConvCtreWpg commands a massive 2 block area and takes over the downtown landscape covered in beautiful white in the winter!

The @truenorthsquare looks extra nice from the air with their new(ish) @scotiabank logo on the side.

Thanks to it’s colourful colours, the @Richardson_INTL #RichardsonInnovationCentre is the most colourful thing in the #Winnipeg winter landscape.

The start of the @RRMTrail is massively active! A great source of #Winter #exercise!

skaters and walkers on the @RRMTrail

And here at the end of the @RRMTrail it might not be as active as the start but they have one of the coolest #warminghuts!

Southern fringe of downtown Halifax - this also happens to be the sort of Neo-Chinatown area that's been alluded to a few times, and Dalhousie's Architecture, Planning, and Engineering schools are packed into a small campus clustered between the two sand-coloured highrises towards the right of the photo

^ Great picture. Between the many layers and the passenger trains in the foreground, I took that for Montreal at first glance.
