Oh, Canada!
Hi Canada, it’s me! Tony, your friend in the States. Thanks to a little programming change I made to the website today you may now order prints to be sent via UPS instead of Int’l Air Mail. I know this news won’t make the front page of the Toronto Star but I thought you art-loving neighbours to the North would feel good knowing that your orders will now arrive quicker and cheaper than ever before - and you get a tracking number too.
Canadians buy more Thumbtack Press prints than any other non-U.S. country (U.K. is second, Australia third if you’re keeping track), thanks, here’s to you Canada!

…We stand on guard for thee
Hi from Vancouver BC. Put a little link to the Toronto Satr website… they may just post it or write about Thumbtack Press in the newspaper rather than online.

Thx Jessica - or should I call you Guardian Angel!
Side note: I was sent to a web conference last year in Vancouver. It was my job to report back on new technologies in the field of virtual museums, and if I had to pick one place to live outside the of U.S. it would be British Columbia. Jeez, it was beautiful!

Nice photos.
I originally lived on the other end of Canada in New Brunswick and moved here only three and a half years ago. Vancouver is a mix mash of culture smashing together re-inventing itself every day. Two things will always remain here: the colors green and grey. Not sure if you ever read City of Glass by Douglas Copeland? It was the first book I read upon arriving here. You may enjoy it
cheers!
