"Quebec is a highly urbanized society. Four out of five Quebecers now live in urban areas. But everywhere, unbridled developments, particularly in favour of speculation and automobile use, have brought their share of problems. Our urbanization has suffered in some way from a lack of urban planning. Of course, we do not live the same way in Baie-Saint-Paul, Shawinigan, Hemmingford, Senneterre as we do in Limoilou or on the Plateau-Mont-Royal. But here as elsewhere, we must now acknowledge the mistakes of the past to rethink planning, real estate development, design, heritage enhancement and landscape protection. But is it too late to design significant developments? Innovative initiatives teach us that we can restore a real quality of life to our cities, whether small or large"-- Provided by publisher.
