India Buildings on Bridge Street has had a roof collapse, destabilising the façade. Neighbouring residents have been evacuated.
Demolition is sadly inevitable now. Just been on site. I'm working with Council officers to try to save the carved pediment and chimneys from the roof.
“What a tragedy WWI was for Canada. I don't just mean the personal tragedies but the breakup of Western civilization…In the blood & horror of the war Western Christianity came to an end and by weakening Britain & France it weakened our ties to our parent nations.”
The worst industrial accident in UK history happened today in 1913 as an explosion devastated the Senghenydd coal mine in Wales. The explosive wave tore through the mine, travelled up shaft & destroyed the headframe; killing someone on the surface. In all 439 miners were killed.

It’s “fascism” to argue that unelected corporate apparatchiks should not be the sole arbiters of what political speech is allowed to traverse the internet. People cheering are so fucking deluded, they actually believe that
Canada wouldn't exist without Sir John A. Macdonald. Canada is a great county, and one we should be proud of. We will not build a better future by defacing our past.
It's time politicians grow a backbone and stand up for our country.
