I grew up in Toronto having a few really cool teachers. Coincidentally, some of them just happened to be old draft-dodgers from back in the day. Good people they were, with their wacky old-hippie ways. A lot of them came up to Canada, and changed it forever. Vancouver is the city it is today because of them, and so are other Canadian towns.
The sculpture in the picture shows a Canadian welcoming two Americans with open arms. It's going to be part of the Our Way Home Reunion later this summer in British Columbia. Although it seems like too much flakey hippie stuff for me, I think it's great that people are finally recognizing the contribution made by these people.
