DESCRIPTION

Andrew and Alia are two of the many Americans who walk among us here in Toronto.

They don't really have a grand thesis about this walk, other than

“Americans! They're here. They've been here. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ”

Come for a wander with them between a handful of stops that mark spaces and places where the Americans have entangled themselves in Toronto's history, for better or worse.

Share your stories, if you've got 'em!

Maybe we'll have some kind of thesis by the end of the walk, maybe not!
