With Labour Day behind us, the CNE has shut down for the year. But before we swear off wearing white for the season or say goodbye to summer (is it that time already?) we want to look back at this year’s CNE. And there’s no better way to do so than by checking out the photos from the very talented contributors to the Torontoist Flickr Pool. Goodbye summer, we hardly knew ye.
