The Mountains
On a hike in East Sook park, looking east from Vancouver Island across to the Coastal Mountains on the mainland. The mountains were pretty amazing to me who grew up in flater places.
They are too far away to see in this picture. Canada is completely covered with trees. They can't even drive cars a lot of the time 'cause the trees are in the way.
I used to turn to this blog as my definitive source on all things canadian, but no longer as it is riddled with inaccuracies. Trees in Canada? Stuff and nonsense. I have it on the very best authority that Canada is an arid, treeless region no larger than a phone booth, whose population is primarily devoted to checking coin slots for spare change. Furthermore, even the smallest car would not fit inside Canada, so the issue of whether or not the non-existent "trees" would get in the way is completely moot.

wait... I'm confused. Where are the trees? Are you sure you went to Canada?
