My
canoe instructor told us that in order to be
real™ canadians, we'd have to join something akin to the mile high club.. only in canoes. The
mile high club is much safer to get into.
Trust me on this one.
P_i informs me that Pierre Berton has also said this. It is within the realm of possibility that my canoe instructor got this from Mr. Berton, since he is a clever writer type of Canadian and my canoe instructor was merely a canoe instructor. However, it it also within the realm of possibility that Pierre Berton stole this from my canoe instructor. No one will ever know.
