This is outrageous.

Plans are steamrolling ahead to build a mega hospital on the grounds of the Central Experimental Farm. The hospital will be close to the Dominion Observatory Campus, Main Dairy Barn, Dominion Arboretum, the Ornamental Gardens, the Dow's Lake Pavilion, Commissioners Park and the Rideau Canal. Queen Juliana Park will no longer exist.
I believe it is time to designate Ottawa's Central Experimental Farm a United Nations World Heritage Site. The UN becomes involved whenever landmarks and landscapes are threatened by acts of war or redevelopment.
The Dominion Observatory Campus may be demolished:
"Coun. Riley Brockington ...has been trying to lock in lease conditions that would preserve as many buildings on the property as possible, such as the Dominion Observatory." From "Feds say they'll pay $11.8 million to clean up new Civic site" by Dave Reevely, Ottawa Citizen, February 23, 2018.

The National Capital Act should be updated. The 1985 law gives the National Capital Commission the power to "sell, grant, convey or otherwise dispose of or make available to any person" NCC land and buildings. We, the People of Canada, own the the NCC's property holdings, and we should have the power to veto any disposal of our land.
The NCC transferred property to the Queenway Carleton Hospital in 1973. Every time I take a bus ride past the hospital I see ongoing construction and the parking lots are huge.

This Land is Your Land by The Travellers
This land is your land, This land is my land
From Bonavista to Vancouver Island
From the Arctic Circle to the Great Lakes Waters
This land was made for you and me.

The Sir John Carling Building can be seen in the background. The mega hospital will encompass Queen Juliana Park.
