CANOODLING WITH A CANUCK IN A CANOE'
--Or, Welcome to Climax, Saskatchewan!
Canada is a pretty straight-laced, peaceful place, where seldom is heard a discouraging word and the skies are not cloudy all day, except for eleven and a half months of the year affectionately called "winter", (when everyone goes inside for a break from the bugs, barking dogs, or far too many exposed bosoms and buttocks -- euphemistically referred to as "bare essentials").
So, one might casually ask ... if the deer and antelope are out prancing about on the back forty, while the beaver are bustling about making dams all day long, and the blessed birds are freezing their little tails off busking for a living in downtown Toronto ...what pray tell are the citizens of this fine country doing to have a good time (besides playing hockey ...or hooky as the case may be)'

Now, having perused this picturesque placename list, put your imagination on hold for a moment.
Never ever ask a Canadian where they're from; they adore keeping strangers in the dark (along with other things like mother-in-laws, monster mashers and mushrooms). Stop fretting and just remember -- there's a fun-loving, party animal lurking somewhere beneath that thick skin, fur coat, and titillating tail!
So get on your sparkly duds and dancing shoes, crank up the mood music, and fire-up the microwave for a platter of McCain's latest piquant-flavored Pizza-Pops!
And if a Canuck should ever invite you for a ride in a canoe ...bring along an extra paddle, a box of popcorn and don't forget to say "Cheese please!" (before snapping the unforgettable photo of that smart-looking Sasquatch!)
