T saw Wonder Woman there -- though by then Yogi was big enough to faff and demand attention and stuff.
I saw Iron Man 2 with Caractacus at the Cameo.

The BBC says my city is the most diverse in the world, with 51% of the population born outside the country, with 230 different nationalities. This seems a bit off, as Canada only officially recognizes 197 other countries, but whatever.
This is terrific for my company, as we always have people on staff that can speak with customers and suppliers in their home languages. There's always a festival going on with awesome new foods to try, and films and music from all over the world.
I keep seeing news from the US and the UK where people are complaining about immigrants and refugees coming and bringing their languages and cultures. That fresh influx of ideas and experiences is what is making my city strong.
