animals on rue Ontario

Posted on July 28, 2023 by Mary C

On Montreal’s rue Ontario, close to rue Moreau and the railway tracks, there is a long brick building close to the sidewalk. At one end there is a painting of a squirrel with an object in his little front paws. This nut shaped object has a label that says Courrier Plus which turns out to be a trucking/transportation company and the owner of the building on which the mural is painted.

The rest of the mural features a red fire hydrant, a pigeon and a toucan with a beak in rainbow colours.
