Text (English side): βΈ» 41 TREES In the summer of 2015, Toronto hosted the XVII Pan American and V Parapan American Games, the largest international multi-sport Games in Canadaβs history. These 41 trees, which stand on the traditional lands of the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation, are in tribute to the 41 participating countries and territories, and the talent, commitment and teamwork of the athletes who were here in pursuit of a dream. More than 10,000 athletes, coaches and officials participated in the TORONTO 2015 Games, thanks to the funding and leadership of the Government of Canada, the Province of Ontario, the City of Toronto, Lead Partner CIBC and 15 other municipalities across the Greater Golden Horseshoe region, three universities and more than a dozen other civic-minded corporate sponsors. None of it would have been possible without the passionate dedication of 23,000-plus Games-time volunteers. United We Play.

Ten years ago today β July 10, 2015 β Toronto kicked off the 2015 Pan Am Games.
To mark the event, 41 trees were planted along a section of Front Street East β one for each country or territory.
In this thread, again, I'll review the state of every tree.

This is a Song from their 1986 album Lifes Rich Pageant, it uses imagery and language that suggests the song is about a group of soldiers, possibly those who fought in the Civil War. @ Here are some lines from the song to provide context: * "We used to be the sunβ + "But now we're goneβ * "And we don't get to be the sunβ * "We're just a memory" * "Amemory of you" + "Amemory of the sunβ The song explores themes of loss, displacement, and the fading away of a past identity, possibly referring to the soldiers and their experiences.
