Yonge-Dundas Square, Toronto, in 2018. The square has since been renamed.

I think this was inspired by York Wilson, whose murals and paintings are all over Toronto. I think it's like his work in the 1950s, when it was evolving from figurative to abstract. But maybe I'm just full of myself.

A warm winter's day in Toronto in January, 2013. The temperature reached a balmy 8C.

Toronto. My favourite moment in Ed's was seeing a group of men in Mao jackets being escorted past a display of backlit Last Suppers. They had clearly been overwhelmed by the range of Ed's stock. The store was opened in 1948 by Ed and Anne Mirvish and closed in 2016. Even when I was a tiny child I thought the store was crowded, so you can imagine how it seemed when I was older. The PiP at top left shows a longer view of thw same elevation, with some of Ed's typical signs.
