Vehicles may be banned from scenic parkways--- in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. So that people will have spaces to run, bicycle and walk... In 1986 the grounds of Rideau Hall were closed to the public for a few years.The Mile Circle Federal Park near Rockcliffe was earmarked for foreign embassies. Carling Avenue will soon have a "Wall of Condos" that block off all the tourist attractions--- similar to Toronto's Wall of China that separates Lake Ontario from the city. Ordinary Canadians do not have thousands of acres of private land; jets that transport us to islands and ski lodges; polo clubs and Soho Clubs. The DARA Tennis Club near Dow's Lake, Ottawa was evicted and the nearby RCN Curling Club cannot afford an increase in rent.
