The first place I lived in Toronto when I came to Ryerson was in Parkdale. The north end. We called it "High Park East". #parkdalelove

It was @JasonARobins and my home when we were first married, walks down by the waterfront were magical at night. #Parkdalelove @gordperks

There is a convenience store on my block with a room of magic candles and women there who can tell you how to use them! #ParkdaleLove

.@gordperks Parkdale is where my band practices because there are still convenient + affordable spaces for things like that. #parkdalelove
