- Memorial_to_the_Victims_of_Communism_(Ottawa) abstract "The Memorial to the Victims of Communism is a proposed monument that is to be built in Ottawa on a site between the Supreme Court of Canada and the National Library of Canada. The design, location and procedure for the planning of the monument has been controversial.The site, which was announced by the federal government in 2012, had been designated for over a century as the future location of a new federal court. In 2014, Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin expressed her concern that the memorial “could send the wrong message within the judicial precinct, unintentionally conveying a sense of bleakness and brutalism that is inconsistent with a space dedicated to the administration of justice.”A final design was selected later in 2014 consisting of a series of folded concrete rows with 100 million "memory squares" to commemorate victims. A member of the design selection jury, Shirley Blumberg, complained that the pool of proposals the jury had to select from was "poor" and that the “the one that was selected by the jury was, I think, particularly brutalist and visceral.”In June 2015, the National Capital Commission revised the design, reducing its size so that it would cover 37% of the site rather than 60%, reducing the number of folded concrete rows to five from seven, reducing its height from 14 metres to 8 metres, and moving it further back from Wellington Street and changing its focus to telling the story of refugees from Communist states.The federal government has pledged $3 million for the construction of the project, with the remaining $2.2 million to be raised by a private charitable foundation called Tribute to Liberty, a Canadian organization founded in 2008 with the goal of building the memorial.The National Capital Commission's advisory committee on planning, design and realty expressed concerns about the proposed memorial as potentially being "detrimental to the dignity" of nearby Parliament Hill. They had also previously expressed concern over the project's price tag, "negative symbolism" and structural safety, particularly in the slippery Ottawa winters. The commission is expected to consider a final design in November 2015, after the Canadian federal election, 2015. A lawsuit aimed at blocking the project has been placed on hold until after the final design has been approved.".
