So here is a quick video I made from shots I took of Vancouver during my visit in August.

Most are from skytrain or the bus, and a few shots of Metrotown made it into there as well.

Enjoy!

One of my favourites ever, and set to a lovely Brianna Gosse song, "Better in the Clouds" - sort of a loving tribute to Al Pittman's poem "Island in the Sky".

Incredible videos above of cities in Canada that I haven't been to before.

Here's a couple fun videos from the 'Paris of the Prairies' from the last few weeks.

I'm new here, I've only submitted YouTube videos on Whatsapp and Messenger before so I hope I get this right setting these up on here, let me know if you like or if I'm doing something wrong.

I know this is supposed to be for Canadian cities only, but I thought I'd share this neat video anyway.
It highlights some of the great and interesting architecture of the 'City of Good Neighbors'

To those who don't know, Buffalo, NY is a border city that identifies more with Ontario than Albany (state capitol), or NYC as one should be able to tell from this ancient internet map



The Canadian flag flies proudly beside the American flag at City Hall as seen in the video.
The introduction is a sound clip from former NBC 'Meet the Press' moderator and Buffalonian, Tim Russert.

Am I just getting old and/or ornery?

Because so many of these videos feature frenetic millisecond shots flitting from one scene to another that end up being strobe-like, and the pretense of exuberant, irresistible urban abundance is a nauseating cliché already.

Is this a product of minute attention spans? Aren't these kinds of videos only stirring to the people who made them or are in them? I mean, what person not in Winnipeg seeing flashing images of the sort of boilerplate DJ event/grassroots art coop scenes replicated daily in a thousand other cities across the world is actually going to stop in their tracks and think "yeah, I should go to Winnipeg"?

They're just mementos for the people involved, right? They're meant to be understood as glorified Facebook postings, and my tremulously earnest befuddlement means I'm totally out to lunch. Right?
