@@Pius-XI Not really so! This library is secular and stands up very well against such libraries around the world. To be direct with you I find the churches of Old Montreal more than competitive with the Vatican structures. The interior of Notre-Dame Basilica Montreal is beyond words for me to describe. Totally breathtaking!
I had a chance to see this place years ago and it is absolutely breathtaking. Worth the visit and the time. The library is definitely the highlight of the entire tour.
@@Pius-XI Why not just explain it? He said it was a beautiful library and then you said "seriously?" as if he had said something controversial or terrible.
I am dying to go for a Parliamentary tour. I have a keen interest in the political process. I want to learn more and I would like to be more involved. But, I need to educate myself more and learn additional skills. I need to return to university. Currently, I need help please. Delighted with this video.
8:10 Beautiful library... but the crown jewel has got to be that librarian (pardon me... the Director General of Info doc resource service). A Canadian take on the sexy librarian trope fantasy. My goodness... WAH WAH WEE WAH ... she sounds so smart, and I bet she speaks French too. She briefly takes off her glasses at 16:50
Centre Block is undergoing much needed restoration. The West Block was restored and upgraded first so Parliament will sit in the interim House of Commons in West Block for the next decade. By the way the interim West Block House of Commons is beautiful. Look for recent videos on UA-cam
Two errors here. First: I assumed that this was the English Parliament. Second: I actually shouted "why the fuck are their Americans in the Parliament's library?"
This library is so beautiful! I would probably cry if I ever had the chance to visit
I wouldn't be able to leave! Just a beauty
Imagine how the original centre block looked 😍😍
If you'd cry over a building that is just over a century old then you would have a melt down if you went to the Vatican for example

The intricacies in the wood work are beautiful.
Awesome detailed video. "A university is just a group of buildings gathered around a library." -Shelby Foote
Loving these videos. So thorough.
Most definitely, one of the top, one of the most beautiful libraries in all of Canada and just as well, within North America.
Seriously?
@@Pius-XI Seriously what?
@@11th_defender51 If you have to ask then no point explaining

@@11th_defender51 Seriously 👏
Thank you for sharing this great video. Fascinating. I am very interested in the political system. I am interested in Primary teaching also.
Thank you for presentation. Kind regards from Poland.

Hello Ottawa, fascinating and great. I am surprised and shocked.
In school I got a tour of the parliament building, why the hell was the most beautiful room not part of it? That’s messed up
Because the library is always in use unlike the House of Commons.
600,000 titles. Incredible.

On good place the heart of books readers remain always ready to study.
wish i could have a chance to go there..beautiful library :")
If i ever die, look for me in places like this ❤
Are we allowed to go there to study or read? Like, casually?
No sadly, it’s only for parliamentarians
@@jaclyn7414 aww okay, i see
thank you!
So only members of Parliament can use this library?
Why is the central parliament building closing for a decade ?

No, that girl will take me to hell😂
It was built before any industrial revolution. Horse and buggy people didn't build it.
I know I been here before
Cute chick

Seen better.
@@Izanagi057 Not really. I guess Canadian's have to be grateful for what little history they have.
The image is too offensive
The music a few mins in is a horrible touch. Keep it quiet and let us enjoy and listen. Awkward choice for showing off canadas most veautiful room
