After Empire State Bldg, Toronto's CN tower lights up in PHL flag colors


After the Empire State Building, it was the turn of the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada to light up with the colors of the Philippine flag, in solidarity with victims of Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan).

The CN Tower was lighted in blue, white, red and yellow – the colors of the Philippine flag – on Monday night (Tuesday Manila time).

CN Tower's night lighting schedule indicated the tower would be lighted again in the colors of the Philippine flag Tuesday night (Wednesday in Manila).

It said this is "to raise awareness of the Typhoon Haiyan Relief Fund."

Also on Wednesday, the Canadian Embassy posted a photo of the CN Tower lit with the colors of the Philippine flag.


CN Tower is a 553.33-meter-high concrete communications and observation tower in downtown Toronto in Ontario.

Yolanda barreled through Visayas and Southern Luzon Nov. 8, leaving behind more than 4,000 dead as of Wednesday morning. — LBG, GMA News
