Saturday Snapshot


Saturday Snapshots is hosted by West Metro Mommy. 

October 2014 - Toronto ON

I'm paying tribute to some heroes. Thank goodness for heroes as we end a horrible week in history here in Canada.


You can watch the moving video of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo being brought home yesterday.



A touching editorial cartoon from Bruce MacKinnon was published this week in the Chronicle Herald. Rest in peace Cpl. Nathan Cirillo. 



I went to Queen's Park this week and took this photo of the flags at half mast outside the Ontario Legislature.



I went in search of the police and firefighters' memorials.

    You chose the right pics for the occasion, Jackie.

    I've followed Bruce's work for a number of years. I think it's the best work he's ever done, and he's so good at it.
