Thanks everyone for your kind words and support. I really appreciate the feedback. For those who were wondering, the photo was taken at City Hall in Toronto. Thanks for following me! Gracias!

This makes me sad. The last time I saw a picture of this wall, it was in memory of Jack Layton.

Wonderful shot, I like the looking away giving the anonymity and mystery as to the person. Congrats on the DD

As a person who lives in Toronto I would say this Is a great picture to be a shown.
He caused a lot of trouble threw out the city but then again he also helped it many ways people don't see.
Also being in one of the bad neighbourhoods of Toronto where this so happened drug selling and Rob Ford was caught I understand that it was a lot of trouble on him too.
This picture has a lot of meaning and is beautiful too,
Thank you for sharing.

What are some of the good things he did? All I hear on the news are the bad, and I don't want to incorrectly assume him to be worse than he is

He did Boost Toronto at one point, I mean if you look at the records and history of him BEFORE they found out about the drugs they cant say he was bad exactly.

Take a look at the messages. It's about Toronto mayor Rob Ford. Worst / most entertaining politician of recent times.

I love it, this picture is so impacting and meaningful. I like how you did it in black and white, and the sharpness of the photo makes the words very easy to understand and portrays their intended sharpness. Great job!

Wonderful photo! Where was it taken?
It pretty much captures what's been going on in Bulgaria since our last government came into power. "Resign now" has been the slogan of people for over 100+ days.

I was trying to place it myself, but don't recognise the area. The patch of poles just visible in the top right might help anyone local, though.
But if you were asking more generally, all the references to Rob Ford and crack (and particularly the "you don't deserve this city" comment) seem to place it pretty squarely in Toronto. However, I think it's a sentiment a whole lot of people can get behind.

Whoops! The poles are in the top left, actually.

It is New City Hall - downtown Toronto .

Ah, thank you! I spent quite a while in Toronto this summer (back when news of the crack video came out, but before Ford admitted to smoking it), and was racking my brains trying to remember if I'd seen this place (though presumably the graffiti turned up after the more recent string of incidents). Apparently I had, but the lack of skyline means there's not much to go on. Pretty much just the flags, which I'm guessing are the ones on Bay Street.
It's probably a bit late for most other people to spot this, but I found globalnews.ca/news/950386/gall⦠which gives some more photos of the event. Not as artistic as this one, but interesting if you want a better view of what's going on around it.

Oh, thanks! I was wondering about the Ford reference. Yes, unfortunately this scenario has happened in other places as well.
