How many Vieux-Québec landmarks can you spot in this photo? This scale model of Quebec City is part of Little Canada, a tourist attraction in the basement of a shopping mall near the corner of Yonge St. and Dundas St. in downtown Toronto. The brainchild of Dutch-Canadian investor Jean-Louis Brenninkmeijer, the dioramas – which include scale models of Ottawa, Toronto, St. John’s, Charlottetown and Yellowknife – are brought to life by a team of more than 50 builders, with occasional contributions from outside teams. After “Petit Québec” and the newly opened “Little North,” “Little Rockies,” “Little Prairies” and “Petit Montréal” are next on the team’s to-do list. To learn more, visit little-canada.ca.
