I had lunch with C today at his office, this is the view of Parliament from one of the terraces. The one thing that's always had me shaking my head is the difference between the riverfront view from the Quebec side (which mostly looks like this - cool old buildings, gorgeous trees and green spaces, etc) and from the Ontario side, which is entirely crappy old factories and falling down warehouses. Why the city of Gatineau doesn't improve their riverfront is beyond me. Perhaps they know that this way tens of thousands of tourists will cross the bridge just for the prettier view?
