My trip to eastern Canada last September-October (2015) seemed so long time ago now.
I posted in the blog earlier about the demonstrations in front of the Parliament Hill. You can read it here: Demonstrations in front of the Centre Block Building on the Parliament Hill
While I was here I took naturally a number of pictures. I do not really have much story to tell for this entry and for the Parliament Hill, except for the demonstrations, because my visit here got interrupted by the rain. Ruined is a more suitable term I guess. You can only plan as much as you can, because mother nature always wins in the end.
There is a free tour of the Centre Block building which I was keen on joining but helaas I had to let go of this. The rain did not stop lashing so I wasn’t able to go back here in Parliament Hill to explore the area and visit the buildings. *sigh* If I find myself back in Ottawa I will surely do this free tour.
Canada has a parliamentary democracy system and the government basically sits here in the Centre Block building of the Parliament Hill.
TRIVIA: Did you know that Canada’s new Prime Minister, Justine Pierre Trudeau is one of the few world leaders with a tattoo? Or at least he is the only world leader right now that has a tattoo.
Churchill and Roosevelt both had tattoos by the way.
These are the rest of the pictures I took in Parliament Hill before the rain poured down non-stop.
