Photo from the WEIRD TORONTO Facebook group.

Happy Valentine’s Day, gentlemen. This is a reminder that it’s not too late!

As a longtime former resident of Toronto and former Microsoft developer evangelist, I often made use of Microsoft’s downtown office in the EY Tower. Hence I can say with great confidence that I recognize the place where this photo was taken without having to analyze its EXIF data (which was removed as part of the Facebook upload process anyway).

The “Earn More Points” sign clearly marks the photo as having been taken at a Shoppers Drug Mart. The near-identical blue suits are a good sign that it’s a Shoppers Drug Mart on or near Bay and King Streets, the financial heart of the city. And finally, I’ve been in this particular drug store more than a couple of times; it’s the one in Brookfield Place (formerly BCE Place).
