How Stronger Antitrust Rules for Big Tech Could Help Consumers

I disagree.
Many of these buildings have no real history. Nothing of lasting interest or significance happened there.
The notion that keeping old buildings as the only way to keep our history is nonsense. Buildings can be memorialized with street-side plaques, photographs, exhibits within museums, and sections of architecturally interesting structures can be moved to parks or the pioneer village.
I take exception to Bentley’s glowing description of the former children’s hospital. I worked there for three years.
What can Bentley say to the families of the children who died in that hospital? Must these families relive their dreadful memories with their own tax money?

When author Arnold Toynbee, in his book, A Study of History, analyzed the rise and fall of civilizations, the main determinant was the kind of leadership in place during times of trouble. If a creative minority was in charge, society would transcend itself and its difficulties. A decline generally happened when a dominant minority ruled and tried to tackle problems by imposing controls on its citizens.
Considering the many controls imposed by our leaders during the pandemic, I’m inclined to say a dominant minority is at the helm.

Police erred in not charging a downtown London bar owner for signage some call divisive and even racist, one legal activist says.
Sam Trosow, a Western University law professor, said he believes the signs outside Dundas Street’s Ale House – which called COVID-19 the “China virus,” sparking intense public criticism – may violate Canada’s hate-speech laws.
