I've had enough of them.  I think I disagree with 95% of their decisions.

They said that only 140 buildings are protected. But that doesn't consider the hundreds that are also protected by the virtue of being inside the heritage districts.

But unlike the recently-infamous Queen St houses, the Sears building is actually unique. The developer proposed to preserve a smallish piece of the wall, but it would not be visible to anyone outside the building.
