Crap. I was sure that was Darlington but Milnoc is correct. I also posted the wrong floral clock... I meant to do the one in Niagara.

Game on Milnoc.

blahblah454 06-07-2008 05:38 PM

You guys sure know your Canada, I have led a pretty isolated life here in Alberta

Milnoc 06-07-2008 06:24 PM

I'll tour the city tomorrow and find something a bit unusual, yet Googleable. :)

Leto 06-08-2008 03:04 AM

Sorry Charl, Milnoc was in fact correct with the plant being the Bruce near Kincardine...

Charlatan 06-08-2008 05:11 AM

I was hung up on the cooling tower rather than the building.

Milnoc 06-08-2008 01:15 PM

I've had some help with the nuclear power plant. A few months ago, I've loaded in Google Earth a list of all the world's nuclear power plants, indexed by country. "Bruce" was the first plant listed under "Canada", and it was a perfect match.

Here's the next one. It might be a bit easy.

Is this in Montreal? It looks like it contains native peoples icons.

Milnoc 06-09-2008 08:11 AM

Yes, it's in Montreal.

Leto 06-10-2008 07:14 PM

La Joute Fountain in front of the Palais des congrès de Montréal

Milnoc 06-11-2008 03:21 AM

Game on, Leto!

Here's a wider picture of the fountain.

Assiniboine Park Zoo in Winnipeg
That is a statue of Harry Colebourn and his black Bear cub Winnie

Leto 06-12-2008 07:10 AM

yes and yes

Game on Sticky

*edit... I was just wondering how many Manitoba entries that we have on this game....

Sticky 06-12-2008 10:41 AM

I think I posted a few from Manitoba in the past.

Can someone else post a pic?

Leto 06-12-2008 12:40 PM

got your back....

Milnoc 06-12-2008 03:00 PM

I dive into my ass, and what do I find? :D

Hay River, Northwest Territories?

The image appears to be old. That thermometer is in Fahrenheit! But the temperature range appears plausible for that part of the Great White North.

Leto 06-12-2008 07:26 PM

your ass would be cold. This is not Hay River NWT. The Thermometer is old, I don't think the picture is. The temp is significant.

blahblah454 06-13-2008 03:20 PM

Thats one of the Thermometers from White River Ontario

Leto 06-13-2008 07:15 PM

you betcha, Game on Blahblah. It's measuring the coldest temperature recorded in Ontario.

Milnoc 06-14-2008 10:53 AM

Leto, that was sneaky! White River happens to be the place where the bear cub Winnie was rescued! The same Winnie as in the previous picture!

Leto 06-15-2008 05:23 PM

It is indeed. Good catch.

blahblah454 06-17-2008 02:59 PM

Thanks for the message Leto! I totally forgot to even check this. I have been out of town for business and I have been busy as hell.

Here we go, this should be a pretty easy one once you start to narrow it down some.

Leto 06-18-2008 05:41 AM

Okay... I'll give it a try;

Roger's Pass

blahblah454 06-18-2008 03:36 PM

Close, but be more specific.

Milnoc 06-19-2008 04:35 AM

The CPR's lower spiral tunnel located near Cathedral, B.C. The picture was taken from the roadside lookout alongside the Trans-Canada Highway.

And that's a single train we see there, crossing over itself as it works its way through the tunnel.

Leto 06-19-2008 05:05 AM

Is that near Roger's Pass?

Milnoc 06-19-2008 05:55 AM

Roger's Pass is 140 kilometers West of Cathedral, on the other side of what I believe is Kootenay Valley. Kicking Horse Pass however is only 9 kilometers East of Cathedral.

blahblah454 06-19-2008 03:10 PM

Nice work Milnoc, you got it.

Milnoc 06-20-2008 07:48 PM

Here's the next one.

http://www.milnoc.com/images/P1010052.JPG

Leto 06-21-2008 09:02 AM

Is this in Montreal?

Milnoc 06-21-2008 04:21 PM

Yes, it's in Montreal.

Leto 06-23-2008 02:57 AM

world trade centre ?

Milnoc 06-23-2008 11:31 AM

Nope!

A hint: it's near the lips! :)

blahblah454 06-24-2008 07:35 PM

Near the lips? The lesbian lips nightclub?

Leto 06-25-2008 04:39 AM

No.. I think it's near the art gallery, the Montreal Contemporary Art Museum.

Sticky 06-25-2008 01:12 PM

Is that the Montreal Art Gallery at Place Des Arts.
here is a pic from on top

Milnoc 06-25-2008 02:27 PM

I have a problem here.

Sticky did identify the object visually, but he didn't properly identify it. Also, to the best of my knowledge, it's not associated with the museum, and it definitely isn't inside it either.

So do we give it to sticky or give him one more chance to properly name it? It's a common word and not a proper name, so it should be easy.

Or am I being a bit too anal over this game? :D

Leto 06-26-2008 04:46 AM

nothing wrong with being anal....

Sticky 06-26-2008 07:00 AM

I think it is just Place Des Arts.
You kind of walk under this when you are coing from the parking lot and going to see a show in one of the theatres.

Milnoc 06-26-2008 09:35 AM

And what do you call a ceiling window that lets in light from the sky? :)
