MAKE HOMEPAGE
To celebrate St Patrick's Day, Tourism Ireland surprised an unsuspecting lunchtime crowd in downtown Toronto with a Glee-style flash mob in Yonge-Dundas Square on Friday. Singing a mash-up of songs by some of Ireland's most popular Irish musical exports - U2's Beautiful Day, Van Morrison's Brown-Eyed Girl and Snow Patrol's Chasing Cars - the flash mob delighted the public who were out enjoying their lunch hour.
