That's the Calgary Stampede Fairgrounds...

Sticky 06-02-2008 04:59 AM

You are correct.

Charlatan 06-02-2008 05:04 PM

Someone else, please take my turn.

Cheers

james t kirk 06-02-2008 06:06 PM

The statue Justitia located at the entrance of the Supreme Court of Canada.

The photographer of the picture is Philippe Landreville.

james t kirk 06-03-2008 09:40 AM

And the sculptor was Walter Alward....

Too easy.

Milnoc 06-03-2008 03:14 PM

Here's the next one.

Along with the location, you must also find the cat's name! :D

Leto 06-04-2008 07:42 AM

Ginger in Ottawa.

Milnoc 06-04-2008 08:43 AM

At least the city is correct. But where in the city?

And no, the cat's name isn't Ginger.

Leto 06-04-2008 10:03 AM

This is the Parliament Hill Cat Sanctuary.

Is the cat Brownie?

Milnoc 06-04-2008 10:35 AM

Game on, Leto!

And no fouls this time! Very good! :D

Leto 06-04-2008 11:06 AM

Thanks. Well I try. That was a toughy.

Where/What is this (under construction) building?

Sticky 06-04-2008 11:27 AM

Indoor soccer feild?

Leto 06-04-2008 11:31 AM

nope. this is pretty big, taken from about 100 yards away.

-- Charlatan or Fresnelly might know at first glance.

Charlatan 06-04-2008 04:49 PM

Is that the new film studios down in the portlands of Toronto?

Leto 06-04-2008 05:04 PM

Game on Charlatan! I believe it's called Filmport. This building is on Commissioner street (I think) and is huge. I really question the economics what with the C$ being on par with the US$ I don't see the draw for the film dollar that we had when they first planned this development.

Milnoc 06-04-2008 05:31 PM

We still have a few extra benefits when compared with the USA such as government grants, enthusiastic and inexpensive production staff, full support services, the latest technologies...

Too bad no Canadian movie production will be able to afford the place... :(

Leto 06-05-2008 08:58 AM

While we wait for Charlatan, Have a gander at these pics. They aren't official entries. Can anybody tell why they wouldn't qualify?

Sticky 06-05-2008 09:35 AM

Is it Turks and Caicos?

Leto 06-05-2008 09:50 AM

Well... you're right in that they aren't in Canada. But it's not T&C

Milnoc 06-05-2008 10:27 AM

Hey! It's Jamaica Mon! :)

Leto 06-05-2008 10:58 AM

Irie mon! You noticed the Red Stripe truck and the Runaway Bay beach shot...

Milnoc 06-05-2008 11:59 AM

I only noticed the beer truck. :) And I don't drink! :D

Leto 06-05-2008 12:51 PM

it was *interesting* watching these two truck navigate past each other on that narow road...

Charlatan 06-05-2008 04:59 PM

I can't believe how far the construction has come. When I left it was still up in the air that I would even get built.

Can someone else please post a picture?

Thanks

Leto 06-05-2008 06:42 PM

ok, I'll go get one.

a seemingly innocuous downtown street... but where is this piece of Canadiana? East? West? North or South? Somebody out there must be able to say where:

Milnoc 06-06-2008 09:31 AM

Can someone else post an image? I'm fresh out of obscure pictures for now.

Leto 06-07-2008 02:07 AM

they don'thave to be obscure.... but I can throw up another one...

Charlatan 06-07-2008 04:20 AM

Darlington Nuclear Power Plant...

I spent some time on the site when it was under construction.

Charlatan 06-07-2008 04:26 AM

OK... I need where this is and what it's connection is to the last picture.

Milnoc 06-07-2008 06:22 AM

The power plant is the Bruce nuclear power plant located on the Eastern shore of Lake Huron.

The floral clock is located at the Princess Street Gardens in Edinburgh, Scotland. It's was inspired Dr. Richard L. Hearn, the then chairman of Ontario Hydro, to build a similar clock at Niagara Park, which was completed in 1950.

Okay. I'll stop showing off now. :)

Ah, what the heck. Bring on the next picture! :D
