Document Renos at 24 Sussex


A documentary on the renovations to 24 Sussex Drive has the potential to offer Canadians a better awareness of the need to address the current conditions of the Prime Minister's residence. Providing Canadians with the chance to see the transition from its present outdated state to one that meets present day construction standards, as well as related environmental concerns, is an educational opportunity that should not be subjectively rejected. Notwithstanding the understandable concern with ensuring security upgrades are safeguarded, some effort should be made at finding a suitable compromise. As noted in an Ottawa Citizen article, 24 Sussex is "probably the most important home in the whole country". Don't Canadians deserve having the chance to see the before and after, including appropriate portions of the in between?
