This book probably should have been called "Canada, but mostly Ontario".
I liked it. I thought it was charming. It gave me a renewed love of Canada's history. The last chapter felt out of place.

I feel like my family was the exact audience intended with this book. Mike Myers should do more audiobook narration!
My fault, I judged a book by its cover. I picked it up because I liked Mike Myers and the picture on the front of the book looked funny, so I though it would be a funny book. It wasn't. But I did learn alot about Canada. And no, I didn't know the hockey team was called the leafs, seriously. Seriously they are the leafs, not seriously that I didn't know. I think that is a silly name for a hockey team. I also want to find the 20 page career assessment test he mentions that he sent in to Ottawa - so far I've had no luck finding it on line, though I'm probably googling the wrong thing. In summary, thought it would be funny, learned alot, but not what I was hoping for from the cover.
Well, I did not expect that a book written by Mike Myers would make me cry this way, but here we are. Witty, insightful, moving. Unapologetically Canadian. Unhappily timely.
