    Kensington Market
    Outrigger guestBook Guestbook   Nov 28, 2014

    Kensington Market to me feels like another world buried within downtown Toronto. I am always struck by the amalgamation of cultures that can be found there, that all take part in the creation of a single Kensington culture. This photo juxtaposes a canoe against a sign labelled "Chinese Herbs" in a rather desolate-looking alley of the Market. To me, the canoe is a symbol of the Canadian frontier, what this notion evokes for me is a comparison between the struggles of the pioneers who made this country what it is today, and the struggles faced by modern immigrants.
