Trafalgar Square. Across the way is Canada Place, our Embassy. On the south side stands a building with „Canadian Pacific” written into the stone, and further on the west side, one with „Grand Trunk Railway”. It seems, we Canadians have not learned that it doesn’t pay to ship the money out of the country. These buildings stand as proof to the resource based history of our country. Thanks Innis and co.

But underneath all the glamour, there is still a regular ciy living, albeit one permeated with brick. Brick, brick, brick, brick.

And of course, the art that brings the streets alive… all Hoxton area stuff.

pretty sure that’s the artist Swoon from New York.

Shepard Fairey…

Judith Supine…

See the hand???
