Toronto Celebrates Drake's 'Iceman'

With the surprise release of the albums Habibti and Maid of Honour in addition to Iceman, the city showed out for Drake. The CN Tower turned blue, Mayor Olivia Chow welcomed the rapper to City Hall, he threw a private party at Casa Loma and the city was treated to a 10-minute fireworks display on the waterfront.
