  2. That church has quite the history. A ceremony commemorating the arrival of Hungarian immigrants to that area was held in March 2019 and was attended by the Hungarian Ambassador to Canada. As far as I know, the church is still standing, but has been rumored to be taken down.

  6. Very unusual design on the front - at least it is in these parts.
