Everyone on MB knows you hate Canada anyways so I can't say your opinion surprises me.

I mostly like just teasing you about living in Canada just like you constantly crap on the US.

Hate is such a strong emotion for something that isn't that serious.

I got the impression they were placed at underpasses from this photo but it could be lumped in with a place in London.

According to a Canadian homeless advocacy group, anti-homeless spikes are relatively common and have even made occasional appearances in Canada.
"I've seen them around, I've seen them here in Calgary and I've seen them in other cities around Canada," Tim Richter, head of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness, told Yahoo Canada News.
"Typically outside high-rise buildings. It is the same kind of thing that lots of places do to deter skate boarding. The last time I saw them was right outside a C-train station in Calgary. They are unfortunately fairly common."

So no it's not just one city and not one building.

First person to fall over and injure themselves on those spikes is going to make a small fortune in compensation.

anybody notice that the exact same picture for the spikes in Montreal was used for spikes in London....duplicate buildings in two different cities?

even though i call bullshit on those two articles....this is really happening and it's sickening

there is an underpass in downtown Seattle that has "art" under it....which just happens to be huge concrete spikes

i can't find a picture of it....but it's right at the end of the Market where Belltown starts

I'm not sure what to say, Louisiana.
