Telephone booths in Canada

Posted on 4:54 PM by Unknown
Canada still has telephone booths, which I have to regard as one of society's diminishing creature comforts. Making a call from a telephone booth makes a helluva difference from using a pay phone on the street which always seem to be inconveniently planted on busy street corners or dicey back roads.
Stepping inside a phone booth, provided no bum has mistaken it for an outhouse, is so much more private and calming than the yammering one can't help but hear from morons and their cell phones/all-in-one gadgets. Here are photos of phone booths in Montreal.
