Video of downtown Sudbury, Ontario, Canada taken not long after sunrise on August 16, 2017. Covered is most of the downtown core, along with a drive at the end south on Paris Street to Science North.

Sudbury, Ontario is a city of around 160,000 located 410 kilometres north of Toronto via highway 400/69. By area, this is the largest city in Ontario and the seventh largest in Canada. By population, it is the 24th largest metro area in Canada.

The city was established in the late 1800's with the discovery of nickel ore. Incorporated as a town in 1893, at one point in the 1970's, 25% of the population worked for nickel mining company Inco. Seen in the background at times during the video is the 380 metre tall Inco Superstack, the second tallest structure in Canada after the CN Tower.

Other landmarks that can be seen in the video include the Sudbury Community Arena, home of the OHL's Sudbury Wolves, a venue that opened in 1951 (look for the statue of Stompin' Tom Connors out front). Ramsey Lake is seen near the end. The lake is the largest lake in the world that is located entirely within the boundaries of a single city. Bell Park is also seen, a previous stop on the Amazing Race Canada. Across Ramsey Lake from Bell Park is the campus of Laurentian University.

Background music: Drankin' Song, Guts and Bourbon, Bumba Crossing, all by Kevin MacLeod.
