The shortest buildings at Bentall_Centre aren't even 25 floors.

The 3 tallest buildings at Bentall_Centre were not only forbidden to have a 50th floor, they don't even have 40 floors. Indeed, given Vancouver's strict height limitations, it was tough enough just to be permitted to have 35 floors. 

Bow_Valley_Square in Calgary was permitted to build a little taller than the Bentall Centre complex.

Of course one of the stump buildings in the Toronto complex is still a little taller than its stump counterpart in Vancouver.
