Give me a break. Toronto is a beautiful, diverse city. I’ve been there twice and will go again next year. Great restaurants, nightclubs, and atmosphere.

The rest of the neighborhood collapsed on an old church?

Just looks like a case of “civic pride” to me.

“Its words, however, filled us with hope, mainly that the show would soon end.”

Funny line. LOL!

LOL. LOVE the “Welcome to Toronto” signs! And the write-up is just SO spot-on!

The ROM addition reminds me of what our (Seattle’s) Experience Music Project (EMP) might look like if it were painted white.

Aren't there medications for that?

I think we need to introduce this building to Seattle's Experience Music Project - they'd have a lot in common...could commiserate and that.

Looks like another joke perpetrated on the public by charlatan/"architect" Frank Gehry.

What happened? Did something else in Torunto fall down?

Hope they got their money back.

"Toronto is a beautiful, diverse city. I’ve been there twice and will go again ..."

Toronto's Mayor David Miller & his merry band of otherwise anti-American morons who run the place only wanted your greenbacks Gringo.
Torontonians insult our U.S. friends & neighbors 24/7/365 & then whine that it was SARs that trashed their tourism biz - stupid self-absorbed commies!
If you didn't feel 'used' during your visit(s) - you probably should have.
Expect a much warmer & more appreciative welcome virtually anywhere else in Canada. (OK, maybe not in Montreal, eh?)

Memo to terrorists: take out arrogant left-wing 'Tee-Oh' & Canada will likely collapse - despising it is pretty much all that unites the rest of the nation.

The last time I got to spend an evening in GTA, I walked into a bohemian neighborhood full of niche restaurants (yummy!) and book stores.

Each book store had a section on how evil / stupid Dubya is. In some cases, the BDS section was half of the store — even bigger than the hockey book section.
