Did you know that Canada was almost called Hochelaga? That€s just one of thousands of wacky facts awaiting readers in Uncle John€s quirky celebration of Earth€s second largest country. You€ll find page after page of bizarre history (like why the beaver was once classified as a fish), plus head-scratching news items (like the crook who returned to the Tim Hortons he€d just robbed to tip the workers), odd places to go (like Mr. Spock€s birthplace in a town called Vulcan), and crazy eats (like the restaurant that makes you eat in complete darkness). So whether you live in Come By Chance, Joe Batt€s Arm, Starvation Cove, or anywhere else inside (or outside) of Canada, yukon count on Uncle John to deliver a world of weirdness from all over this great country. For example:
- Cow-patty bingo in Alberta (Rule #1: Wear gloves)
- How to enforce the new Quebec law that requires dogs to be bilingual
- The sea of Molson Golden that once shut down an Ontario freeway
- The mystery of the mini earthquakes in a New Brunswick town
- Why it€s illegal to kill a sasquatch in British Columbia
- The Nova Scotia company that makes mattresses for cows
And much more!
