Isn't that the Official Diefenbaker Memorial Cold War Bomb Shelter? The Diefenbunker?

I used to have a view of the pyramids from my apartment.
|
At one time I thought I might work here...

The roof of CBC headquarters at Wellington and John?
|
No. Interesting guess. Not really close.
|
That Muttart Conservatory looks really interesting. I would love to go there. Speaking of plant collections and the Toronto Zoo, On the many tours that I have taken there, they always point out that their indignous (to the various ecological zones) plant collection is by far more valuable than their animal collection.

thats not the Sleeman Brewing Company, is it?

No. Wrong province, wrong business.

telus data centre in Vancouver?

The Grateful Dead Live Recording Archives?
OK, that's in the States, but it's run by a Canadian :thumbsup: Is this some sort of film archive? EDIT: Found it. It's the National Archives Preservation Centre in Gatineau PQ. Quote:
What job could you have had? |

A couple of my friends who were in Film Studies landed jobs there as film archivists. Another friend was (and I think still is) a programmer for the film archives screenings. At one point I gave serious thought to following their example... instead I followed my girlfriend (now wife) back to Toronto. |

very cool. Is this all film? is there a move to convert to digital and perhaps make it available to the public via web access? |
We're richer for it.:)
You should be able to guess the city in this photo pretty easily, but I'd like either the name of the (awesome) event, or the name of the venue. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...osts/event.jpg |
The Winnipeg Folk Festival at Bird's Hill Park

awesome.
I have to say, this thread is educational, AND fun! *it's very neat to see how cities such as Winnipeg, Calgary have changed since I last drove through them circa 1984... |
Right kind of event - wrong town. Look closer.
|
I'm pretty sure that's the Edmonton Folk Music Festival.
|
It's Edmonton. The Muttart Conservatory is visible in the background.
So the Edmonton Folk Festival. EDIT - Damn. Skier beat me to the punch... |
That's right Skier. And good eye Martian!
I've been to it twice and it's truly a magical musical experience. Game on... |
Alright next up:

Just a shot in the dark - Whistler, BC?
No idea where you'd be standing though. Them mountains, they all looks the same to me. |
Nice try, but that's not it. It is a ski resort though.
|
Hmm. Sunshine on Goats Eye?

Wow, it's one I know! That's the giant nickel in Sudbury.
|
I can't imagine there are too many Canadians who couldn't get that one... but how many have actually been there?
|
I have family in Sudbury. I've seen that damn thing in person.. for some reason I didn't think it was all too impressive.
I've rarely been out of Ontario, but I've seen a lot of the towns that are here. Eventually something was going to click. |
|
That's in Lindsay, Ontario... I am there frequently enough.
