There was actually a real estate assessment done some years ago which argued that the property would actually be more valuable without the house itself, because the house is in such poor condition but the land is prime real estate with a fantastic view of the Ottawa River.
Buckingham Palace is a genuine historical treasure.
I have no time for anything related to the royals, so I totally understand why some British people are salty that their tax money is going to an old lady's house when their Tory government is slashing and cutting as many services as they can get away with.
The government would still own Buckingham Palace whether it was a monarchy or not.
This is pretty bad too:
I wonder if Harper would pull a Duceppe and take over the party again right before the next election
Either way, the news doesn't sound good if you're a CPC supporter. Harper's fear of being criticized is actually astounding.
Also, Ray Novak is sounding like as much a liability as Harper, even if you don't take the Duffy stuff into account.
Yeah, but they could turn it into a museum and fund it with ticket sales.
As someone mentioned, it's only 80 years old.
Speaking frankly, there's quite a lot you didn't know about up until and continuing through this election....
It is a museum though? I went there before, it was lame as hell. Still the first place that comes to mind when I think tourist trap lol.
Not having heard of 24 Sussex Drive until October 20, 2015 does you no favours, after nearly 700 posts in a Canadian Election thread, no matter how much more ignorant your peers are.
Especially when you have quasi-styled yourself as GAF's Canadian security expert.
How old are you?
I don't know how much you know about GG but they are pretty good at harassing people when they focus their energies. I never said that GG could threaten Trudeau's security or anything, just that they could, if they wanted to, humiliate him/his family, like they have done to many. You might not care but I was simply pointing that out as a possibility. I also said that GG uses NeoGAF and would see the thread. That was proven to be true in the thread that was posted in gaming.
It seems likely that one of the people were found are among that to me.
Even a stupid ignorant racist québécois like me knew about it.
pI know enough about Quebec to know that Harper's racist campaign was ripped straight from there. I don't know how someone living in Quebec can't put that together.Even a stupid ignorant racist québécois like me knew about it.
Pretty good of him of not knowing about things like this, but still being knowledgeable enough to know everything about the culture of provinces he's never been to. I'm impressed!
lmao, shots fired
Yeah I don't know how people actually living there since their birth would arrive at different conclusions than some guy from another province with a hard-on about hating Québec! Truly baffling.
That would explain it. I got the sense that you were from another time.
You were born in the most nationalistic province in the country, therefore, what you say about it is true. Compelling argument.
Ignorant speculation? Do you know about how Aboriginal women are treated in Canada?
You're ruining the fun I was having reading the back and forth.

From the looks of things, it sounds like he'll need one.I, for one, volunteer to be his guide on such a weekend...
I'm less interested in hearing about "how much you know about X" and more interested in about what you know.
That doesn't matter. This entire time I've been arguing with him, all he's responded with is "you're wrong, I know more", same as the other guy. If he has something to say, I'm willing to listen but so far, he's said nothing.
If Walpugris is 18, and he was 5 when you found about 24 Sussex, wouldn't that mean you were also 18 when you found out about it?31. But I assure you, young whippersnapper, I was familiar with what "24 Sussex Drive" was when you were still 5 years old.
No. What the fuck. Just no.
