Seeing a notice of the commencement of the next phase of the Centre Block restoration project, Paul reached out to the contacts we made while advocating in 2019 for the preservation of the centenary elm that stood just east of the Centre Block. Even though the elm was lost, a plan was made by the project team to take cuttings from the tree and to send them to the Guelph Arboretum to attempt to propagate this seemingly Dutch Elm disease resistant specimen. We received an update a year later that some grafts had taken but have received no news since then. No response has yet been received.
