🪨Rocks are from the actual Rocky Mountains
📍Right beside the tracks at Union Station
Two bronze figures strain against a pulley on life-size scaffolding, frozen in the labor that killed thousands. Eldon Garnet's 1989 memorial honors the 17,000 Chinese workers who built Canada's western railway for half the wages and twice the danger, with two massive rocks from the Rockies at its feet.
