Centretown welcomed a new message from Sam Pretty, who installed this photorealistic wheatpaste in November 2025. This vibrant piece carries the bilingual affirmation "You are the only one like you" next to its French equivalent "Tu es la meilleure version," making it a celebrated addition to the neighborhood. The highly detailed, realistic mural is deliberately set against an urban backdrop that includes a recognizable ByWard Market road sign. This clever placement grounds the universal message in a specific Ottawa context, offering a moment of self-affirmation amidst the city's blue skies and greenery.
