The most noticeable lights to go out from my view, those of the Rogers Centre Headquarters, the Manulife building's clock and temperature reader, the CN Tower, and the lights illuminating Nathan Phillips Square, came back on shortly after 9 pm, the end of Earth Hour.

I live in the US now, but was born in Canada. It would have been nice to see a larger black out, but makes me happy to know that some of the larger companies are respecting the environment.
