Could New building shadowing policies kill many downtown Vancouver projects?

Of course, because Vancouver has been trapped under a multigenerational thwarting agenda. Almost any excuse has been used to hold the scale of the city back. 

3 octagonal shaped office towers opened in 1977. 25_Martin_Place, formerly MLC in Sydney with 67 floors above ground. Nauru_House in Melbourne with 52 levels above ground. Then there is the Scotia_Tower or stump in Vancouver, with the windows only reaching up to the 34th floor. 138 m or 452 ft. The 35th and 36th floors have no windows. https://www.skydb.net/building/134544260/scotia-tower-vancouver , https://www.skyscrapercenter.com/building/scotia-tower/4396

No office tower in Vancouver is allowed to have a 40th floor. Even the mountains north of Vancouver are shorter than the ones in L.A.

The Columbia_Center in Seattle has 76 floors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_Center#Design The Wilshire_Grand_Center and the U.S._Bank_Tower_in Los_Angeles both have 73 floors.

Northern B.C. businesses demand Ottawa revisit immigration, work permit cuts

Prince+Rupert is in a limited growth area. In contrast, Terrace has a lot of relatively flat land around it for growth. Terrace isn't as limited as PR, so its a potential growth area.

Despite its limited flat areas, Prince_Rupert should be a growing port for NW BC. Kitimat should also continue as a major BC port. Terrace has the biggest potential for growth and should have improved highway and rail connections between PR and Kitimat.

Switzerland can fit into BC about 23 times, yet BC doesn't even have the population of one CH. Canada is nowhere close to having 1% of the worlds population.
