There are a lot of these in the Toronto area....

If I just took a walk up the street right now, I would get about 30 photos at least!; 3:22 p.m.

mister anchovy said...: The west side of Toronto, where I have always lived, is a wonderfully ethnically diverse area. A lot of the street shrines around here are from the Portuguese community, and remnants of the Italian community that used to predominate....it's for sure a Catholic thang. My family were Catholics too, Polish immigrants who settled in Parkdale....but I don't remember the shrines from the old Polish hood (Galley Ave, Sorauran, etc).; 10:18 p.m.
Wandering Coyote said...: That was what I'd thought, too.; 6:12 p.m.
