Hey, that’s me chalk drawing the Heart in Centre of The Labyrinth!
Shortly thereafter, The Carnival Band parade arrives and stops atop The Labyrinth!

Looking west upon Robson Square, you can see my currently Green colour painted Labyrinth . . .
Blessings Appreciated !
“After several days of frazzled energy, encountering this Labyrinth painted on the ground amidst the gingko leaves that already festooned the space, was very much welcomed.
I was hurrying on my way to work this evening but gave myself the gift of time to stop and walk along the Labyrinth’s calming and healing pathway. Blessings to the maker.”
I’ve been waiting for the rain to come and wash away the still visible chalk outlines, then I intend to finish painting the Robson Square Labyrinth in Downtown Vancouver…
On this Canada Day 2017, I found my way to Jack Poole Plaza in Downtown Vancouver and the big empty space of interlocking bricks immediately north of the Olympic Cauldron which was lit up to mark Canada150.
I chalked out a Giant Maple Leaf which contained a Labyrinth.
It was enjoyed almost immediately by many.
It was also walked over, invisible to many.
This City, Vancouver, has added a “+” to their Canada150 observances of the year.
That “+” is to acknowledge Indigenous Peoples and their Unceded Coast Salish Territory upon which we as settlers/colonizers now occupy.
To many in Vancouver, Indigenous People and their Territory are now seen and acknowledged.
To many elsewhere in Canada, Indigenous People and their Territory remain invisible.
