This will be the view from the future Tour des Canadiens (although it will be obstructed by the Deloitte Tower, L'Avenue, Roccabella and Icone.) It's really wide so I hid it in the spoiler.

I love that angle of Edmonton.

Also, you guys must have one of the best tobogganing hills in a city there.

^^Connors hill is MASSIVE and fantastic for all ages. Wide, mixture of grade, bowl at the top, amazing views.

It is adjacent to the Edmonton Ski Club.
