Followed up re-painting Labyrinths in nearby Kensington Market on Pedestrian Sunday,

By re-painting the latest replacement of the Grange Park Labyrinth.

At this point, the frequency of me needing to re-paint its latest removals, finds me forgetting to even bother photographing my Labyrinth remaking work at all.

So here is the first, and only, photograph so far to appear online, of the Latest version of my Grange Park Labyrinth . . .

It’s Municipal Election Day in Toronto and elsewhere in Ontario.

While I’m NOT on the Ballot today,

When I was on the Ballot running for or to lead Toronto City Council in elections past,

A vote for me then was a vote for Public Spaces,

As urbanist author John Lorinc is providing you that same reason to vote for today…


The Photograph John Lorinc included in his get-out-the-vote tweet includes the Man in The Maze Labyrinth I painted on the surface of the wading pool in Marian Engel Park.

Rather than voting for Public Spaces and hoping for the best,

Nowadays I placemake Labyrinths as my contribution to Toronto’s Public Spaces.

Labyrinth Making is easier than winning elections.

And with the ongoing destruction of municipal democracy by Queen’s Park of late,

Maybe it’s more effective than voting…?

I expect a low, very low, voter turn out today.

The city also loves to use harsh chemicals to spray away the the maze that keeps getting painted on the walkway at Grange park. Every two weeks.

“The city also loves to use harsh chemicals to spray away the the maze that keeps getting painted on the walkway at Grange park.

Every two weeks.

“…It’s time for people to start forming organizations to protect cyclists, transit riders, pedestrians, and yes — drivers — from car-centrism.

I’m not going to spend years writing to city council that I need a crosswalk where I live — I’m just going to paint it now.

I’m not going to wait years on hundreds of thousands of dollars for impact studies blocking traffic out of neighbourhood streets.

We need to just erect the barriers and bike lanes ourselves.

Erect the bus benches ourselves.

Shrink the streets ourselves.

There’s a long history of neighbours taking matters into their own hands.

We need to bring Tactical Urbanism back. …”

After OpenStreetsTO on Sunday afternoon,

I meandered my way to Grange Park to walk my Blue Labyrinth,

It’s still there,

Still painted on the surface in the middle of Grange Park.

Below the Blue Labyrinth there is enough space for another Labyrinth.

In recent weeks,

I have been randomly chalking a walkable Heart Labyrinth in this space.

Apparently, it’s still there.

This is the Heart at the Start of the Heart Labyrinth.

The curve on the left suggests a feeling like a ray from a rainbow landing on the Heart.
