Westmount enneigé

This scene is seemingly typical of so many places in North America right now. As it happens the photo was shot in Westmount, one of the municipalities on the Island of Montreal.

Last vestiges of winter

This is what rural Manitoba looked like, just about a month ago, around Portage La Prairie. Captured from aboard Via Rail’s Toronto-Vancouver train, “The Canadian”.

The mascots for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games were on hand in Castlegar, B.C., on Aug. 16, 2008, to help open the town’s new town hall and adjacent Spirit Square. Unfortunately for the mascots (and the actors playing them) it was about 38 degrees C at the time — roughly 100 degrees F.

How *not* to beat the heat
