[PHOTO] Three photos of Les boules roses at Wellesley

[rfmcdonald]

Claude Cormier's Les boules roses, the chains of pink and multi-coloured balls that have hung above rue Sainte-Catherine in the Village gay every year since 2011 (though perhaps this may be their final summer), features in advertisements for Fierté Montréal Pride at Wellesley subway station in Toronto's Gay Village. These ads were a bit poignant for me, coming so soon after my return from a fantastic four-day trip down Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence to the gorgeous city of Montréal, but in a good way.
