For MonctonRad.

On my journey westward, I took a 14-km detour of the TCH wondering WTF a town was doing out in the middle of nowhere in the interior:

http://i59.tinypic.com/156tthl.jpg

They had a grocery that was basically a Walmart. For a few dozen residents. It was insane. They even had genuinely cool clothes in there. I bought an SD card for my camera. :haha:

So, anyhow, I'm leaving this town... and I see this, and crack up. Almost passed out from laughing, had to pull over:

http://i61.tinypic.com/nqwwlh.jpg

So I investigate further, and this is where moose were first introduced to the island of Newfoundland in 1904.

http://i61.tinypic.com/35jk11t.jpg

And guess where the first ones came from?

http://i59.tinypic.com/nxkwsi.jpg

http://i62.tinypic.com/9q93io.jpg

He's giving you a wink, MonctonRad...

http://i60.tinypic.com/i3i8ns.jpg

MonctonRad Aug 17, 2014 11:54 PM

Thanks Signal:

I was actually already aware that the moose in Newfoundland had been introduced from NB. They had a show about that on TV some time ago (maybe for the centenary).

Given the way the moose have taken over your island, I'm sure that you would rather that we took them all back……. :haha:

Looks like you covered most of Downtown Kitchener, Chad. I was actually thinking of starting a new thread of weird and unexpected things in our cities' built environments, which would in Kitchener's case have included the goofy Oktoberfest "castle" and the maypole, but you've beaten me to the punch.

Back in June I was in Toronto on business for new nights. It was my first time there since 2009, so I had so do some touristy stuff to see all the changes the city has seen in the past 5 years. Here is a bunch of photos of the familair locations that I took during the few nights there.

Well, thank you. I will think about doing that. :)

Amazing Toronto photos!

This looks like one of those hidden jumps in Grand Theft Auto lol, just the angle of the road beside the freeway.

Great - looks like a beautiful town. You can tell with this era of architecture, as with some of the Kitchener shots above, that they actually cared about the appearance of buildings.👌 Also, I like Sony too.

I still think the Irish build the best mosques. That church is so cool.

Can someone link me to how Hochelaga is pronounced?

kool maudit Aug 23, 2014 9:57 AM

osh-la-ga, typically.

SignalHillHiker Aug 23, 2014 10:04 AM

Oh, wow. That's much prettier than I expected. It'd be terrifying coming from a German, but nice in French.

Nice urban scene. In fact, Kitchener is proving to be a pleasant surprise.

Exactly as it's written, actually. I can't even think of any other possible way to pronounce that set of letters together than the correct one.

attempts i have heard (in english, an initial "h" is never silent, so the correct pronunciation is counter-intuitive for non-french speakers):

hoh-cheh-lay-ga

hotch-lah-gah

of course, this is nothing for montreal. i mean, if you are anglophone and not familiar with the place, how are you going to ask for directions to "boulevard pie-ix?"

(it's "pee-neuf," which is french for "pius the ninth" — it's a papal nomenclature.)

i think the best one i have heard had to do with metro angrignon; someone called it "angry onion".

"lionel-groulx" provides awkwardness too.
