I'm not making this up... at least the part about a model of the lighthouse being erected at a mall in Toronto. I used the image of the big tub harbour lighthouse from local artist Sue Allison series of paintings featuring are lighthouses. She's a terrific painter, and I like her stuff. I showed her my cartoon and she said that it wasn't the Big Tub lighthouse. I showed her painting to her since it was right there in Owen Sound's Artist's Co-Op since my wife works there and Sue was there the day I dropped my wife off at work before heading to The Sun Times. She (kind of lacking conviction, I thought) agreed it could be the same lighthouse in my cartoon) . Sheesh! It's just a cartoon, Sue... and I'm a cartoonist, not a skilled painter. Anyway, I really like this one and I hope you do, too. P.S., Sue liked it as well.
