Wrecking Balls Are Destroying B.C.'s Heritage — and its Character

摘要

Ho hum. another day. another fragment of British Columbia's heritage erased in the name of progress, cleanliness and saving NIMBY neighbourhoods from visitor parking.There will be cheering among the historical sanitizers in Comox today as iconic Canadian artist and naturalist Mack Laing's former residence is consigned to the garbage. It joins the rabble of half a dozen other historic "eyesores", which no longer afflict the gaze of tourists whom civic leaders presumably think prefer visiting strip malls.
