I'm really enjoying this thread..
I've never heard of Mummer's Parade, What's the meaning behind it, is it only in Saint John's? it sort of looks zombie like..

I'm going to add some Saskatoon pics to this thread, they aren't my pics but ones i've seen from other threads or from photographers in the city through out the year, i've included sources below each photo.

Thanks for sharing, love Gary Cummins photos on Flickr!

It's a shame that more photographers seem to be moving to Instagram, as you just don't get the same image quality there, but I suppose better copyright control, etc.

I just Google the name on that sign and it's at Sherbrooke and St Christophe, east of downtown. Apparently the stairs were added in 2014.

Thanks, we'll definitely go there next time we're in the city. Though I'm always amused by how directions in work in Montreal.

The stairs have been redone recently, but they were always there. What's new is the permanent slide.

Darkoshvilli Jan 2, 2017 4:58 AM

It's a neat little spot. We don't have much of these stairs surrounded by old rowhouses type of places that you have in Quebec City and St Johns.

Pinion Jan 2, 2017 7:52 AM

Wife took this while snowshoeing on Jan 1 on Cypress mountain.

That's a great picture. I was snowshoeing on Grouse Mountain yesterday. There was 60km/h wind gusts on top of the mountain but once you got into the trees, it was a pleasant day.

SignalHillHiker Jan 2, 2017 10:32 PM

Love the quoted MTL picture. Reminds me of all the little staircase lanes here, the houses are even painted brightly - same basic idea, but MTL's is nicer and stone. :D I wish we had that meaty feeling too, where you look at that and just know there's city all around you, unlike here, where you know, okay, another half block and I'm in clapboard rowhouses. I think most people can just sense when it's the end, and when it's the beginning. And I wish we had some parts that felt a beginning like that MTL pic. :(

That memorial is to the son of a former Governor General (of NL, pre-Confed) who drowned saving two young lower-class girls from a nearby river. People back then thought it was a waste and the two girls never had very enjoyable lives after.

The City has implemented a shitload of heritage protection laws, but I think my personal favourite - in terms of how it has translated into the experience of being in the city - is that no home may share the same exterior colour as an attached neighbouring home.

All the colours you can see
Cover the borders of a masterpiece
Time can paint the best of me
Over the unclear eyes of memory
All hands on a grain of sand

Here are some more aerial photos that I thought were interesting. They used to be a rare commodity because before drones you had to use a helicopter shots like this. Now they're common.

Not sure. I've been meaning to pop in and talk to the guy but he's always hanging out laughing with his old mates. The café people next door say that he's been there forever and that the shop will only close whenever he does, so to speak.

Awesome post. The last one makes me happy.

Remember, life before The Event was not quite as real or idyllic as you may imagine it was. That the surface of the earth was inhabitable was probably a fluke of nature. We are now living in a more viable Reality.

This is what we have learned from The Event.

Rollerstud98 Jan 7, 2017 1:36 AM

Man am I happy I don't live somewhere with that awful streetcar cable system. I can't stand cables running everywhere like that and would lose my mind! Even just what the c-trains have bothers me and I wish they were all underground.

SignalHillHiker Jan 7, 2017 1:41 AM

Are you a real person or a parody account?

Rollerstud98 Jan 7, 2017 1:45 AM

Real person hahaha. I just don't fit the mold of most here. I love towers(office, not condo) but hate density!

ScreamingViking Jan 7, 2017 7:05 AM

Love that set of Toronto pics. Thank you, MonkeyRonin :tup:

I'm a commuter to Toronto from a far-flung burgh, and as a commuter I tend to forget about all there is to appreciate about the city I commute to, at least during the daily grind in and out. But when I visit as a non-commuter, those images represent exactly the kinds of things I appreciate about Toronto.

Beedok Jan 7, 2017 2:31 PM

I do like the overhead wires, but the actual tracks always seem like a tripping hazard (or slipping hazard in winter/rainy days). Another reason to prefer buses. ;-)

Peace River has a very nice ski hill for a ski hill in the prairies. It looks like the Peace River valley is almost twice as deep as the North Saskatchewan River valley in Edmonton is.

No, the Empress is in NDG but they are somewhat similar. The ongoing saga of what to do with the Empress is still ongoing..
