Truth be told, that is a ridiculously tall tree... possibly the tallest I've come across in an urban setting here. 6-7 stories high and the trunks are massive. Wonder what species it is.

I saw the funnel while driving on Deerfoot after lunch and thought I was seeing things. That storm cell blew directly over top of my office around 2:00. We seriously thought it was going to drop a tornado right on us. Scariest weather i've ever seen. Had to put a claim in today for my car which was dented by the hail.

Great shots and that huge cruise ship looks cool.

Every time I see the Vancouver skyline I want to go buy a big axe and chop down the stupid rotating blob on top of the Waterfront Tower.

MNP may not be the tallest tower but it looks absolutely fantastic

The Tour des Canadiens is turning out well IMO. The Deloitte Tower also looks great in this picture.

This photo really shows how stunted the Crystal is though. I don't hate that building, but it is cruelly missing 15 floors.

5-6 stories seems fairly normal for trees in Hamilton. Maybe it's an oak or something? The Elms in Winnipeg seemed to be pushing 7+ stories too, so that's an option.

Yup, I really like tour des Canadiens. It is going to make a nice impact on the skyline.

Same here! The office building part is rather bland and blocky.
