	http://www.fraserfriends.org/ read the link above, it seems that the library is to be demolished if that petition doesn't succeed , to make place for condos and so again a part of the Canadian history heritage will be destroyed... what a perfect society we have !

If you follow the link given above, it also mentions that there is a move afoot to change the name of Parc Avenue to Boulevard Robert Bourassa. I'm not sure what Parc Avenue was named for, but wanting to change the name is part of a pattern of historical revisionism that has been ongoing for more than 30 years now.

I remember when Dorchester Street was changed to Boulevard Rene Levesque; when Mountain Street was changed to de la Montagne--despite the fact that the street was named for Bishop Jacob Mountain. Griffintown is now officially designated as Faubourg des Recollets--the pattern goes on and on.

Since the 1960s, Montreal has been a developer's paradise--just bulldoze what you want, and build something over it. How many historical buildings have been demolished? (The Van Horne mansion is just one that comes to mind.) I know the provincial motto is "Je me souviens" but it appears that Montreal has a bad case of Alzheimers at least when it comes to certain historical groups and periods.

Maybe your just not lucky. I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the other side. Yes, God does speak to you.

	J'ai mis sur le net une bonne partie de la collection de photo que jai dans mon ordi que j'ai trouvé sur divers site internet, certains ont été démolie pour agrandir les rues, pour resubdiviser les terrains ou tout simplement parce que plus personne ne voulait s'occuper de ces propriété devenue trop grande et trop couteuse...

	Wow chapeau!!! Vraiment bien comme site! Il ne faut pas oublier cependant que la majorité de ces bâtiments ont été détruits il y a quelques dizaines d'années... Aujourd'hui les mentatlités on évolué et on tend à conserver / restaurer / revitatliser ce genre de construction. Le problème de nos jours n'est pas le cadre bâti... Mais plutôt les terrains vacants (souvent verts avec des arbres), Voila la véritable cible des promoteurs immobilier! Ça m'enrage!
