In many larger cities, there can often be an overwhelming feeling of hustle and bustle that seems to never slow down. Toronto is certainly no different in this regard. However, amidst the constant energy and movement, there are moments when one discovers a particular spot that radiates a welcoming sense of calm, a genuine feeling of inclusion, and a true sense of belonging… For me personally, Nathan Phillips Square is that place!

The “People of Nathan Phillips Square” series provides a small window into one of my favourite places in Toronto, Ontario. My hope is to provoke emotions, as you see the acceptance, diversity, freedom of expression, love, companionship and gratitude through my eyes.
