PART 3

SPRING

The sound of ice cracking and rivers flowing. The Rouge conservation area is alive again. Three fawns travel like secrets through the forest at sunset.

At the corner of Markham Road and Lawrence Avenue

Elders are finally able to brave the slightly warmer weather to showcase their wares. Expansive hooked rugs with images of lions on them. Bed sheets dedicated to the memory of Bob Marley. Who buys them? No one knows.

On Starspray Boulevard

Ravinder Kaur happily puts a sold sticker on a sale sign. Another house sold to another brown family in an otherwise white neighbourhood.
