You gave indigenous people autonomy and got mad when they used it to build apartment buildings? What did you think landback meant? Vibes? Papers? Essays?

Wait, all those land acknowledgements my Canadian colleagues make actually have action tied to them?

Of all countries Canada is too built up for them?

These buildings rock actually

Also neither here nor there but whoever told architects that their aesthetic judgments were in any way more valuable than any random schmuck on the street has a lot to answer for.

Don't threaten me with a balcony with a nice view

I like the look of those buildings

Those...aren't ugly. They're interesting, and I like that everyone gets a balcony. The angles mean more residents get better views. As an architect, he knows better.

I have seen a LOT worse buildings on the Vancouver waterfront, utterly featureless concrete and glass rectangular solids pressed close together. I don't claim to be an architecture critic, but at least these aren't that.

I think it looks badass. I appreciate the modern style with natural and livable elements, and that the design features will also limit bird strikes
