Nice finds!

Small correction: with the recent growth and the latest amalgamation of ''Le Bic'', we are now sitting at 50 000.

Taken about 3 weeks ago.

London has taller buildings than all of those cities.

That is great they both have taller buildings, but height is only 1 of many factors that makes a skyline interesting or beautiful to me.

And in my opinion the skylines of Victoria, Regina and Halifax are much more impressive and beautiful than that of London or Niagra.

^I agree. And I currently live in London (but pine somedays for Montreal and Vancouver, former homes)

I wouldn't say Regina has a beautiful skyline... Impressive for a city of its size, but beautiful?

Anyway, here is the not-so-beautiful Iqaluit. pop. 6500

I now live in Regina, but one of the reasons I like Regina's skyline is that it is a good size, and it is pretty glassy.

I know, it's pretty cool. I'd also like to see other cities like Whitehorse and Iqaluit develop a mini skyline.

But Iqaluit already does have a (extremely) mini skyline

I wonder what it will look like when Harper opens the Ministry of Northern Development? An office bldg and several new homes for the public servants. Their salaries should be good for the economy too.
