The Great Reset.

My predictions: 1.) The federal government will privatize thousands of government buildings now that civil servants work from home or from a hub. During the 1990's there were rumours that Place du Portage in Gatineau would be sold.

2.) There are 4,300 hectares of  parkland in Canada's capital, or 10,625 acres, thanks to Prime Ministers Mackenzie King and  Sir Wilfrid Laurier; an urban planner named Jacques Greber from Paris, France; the Ottawa Improvement Commission and politicians who preserved the Greenbelt. The mindset of a few current politicians is that we do not deserve an abundance of green space. Fences may be installed around parks. I can envision long lineups of people waiting at checkpoints; identification papers are necessary and security guards will blast out commands on loudspeakers: "You cannot loiter in the park, but you can walk, run and ride your bicycle. Stay on the path. You are allotted half an hour to enjoy the green space."

3.) The sale of federal parks that are now protected from developers. Google: "Urban natural features strategy city of ottawa, April 11, 2006." Recreational land strategy for Ottawa-2006-2031: 4.4.2. "The city's requirement for parks and open spaces may have to be revisited to ensure that the types of spaces required for developers reflect the need for quality spaces...The goals of a review of parks and recreational land should be 'Quality over quantity.'. ..Parks don't have to be grassy to be green...The city should accept parkettes as part of the 5% parkland dedication." (Parkettes or pocket parks are less than 0.5 hectares in size. In 1950 urban planner Jacques Greber created a National War Memorial in the capital, 900 square miles of land that would be owned by Canadians forever. Read page 11/396 and page 7/396 of the Greber Report. "The City of Ottawa has identified more than 13,700 acres of the Greenbelt that could be developed ... without damaging its overall integrity." Google: Greenbelt wikipedia.

4.) The end of height restrictions on buildings in the Parliamentary Precinct, including the Western Annex of the Parliamentary Precinct, Lebreton. House of Commons Ottawa November 23, 1967: The Hon. George McIlraith (Minister of Public Works): "Buildings on or near the Parliamentary Precinct cannot be any taller than the Peace Tower."
