Nothing says Canada like a stilt walking band wearing lumber jackets

Looking to host the ultimate Canada Day party? You're in luck.

While researching some entertainment possibilities for an upcoming corporate event (non-Canada Day related), I stumbled across this Canadian themed entertainment package from a company called Contraband International based out of London, UK.

The package includes "...Mounties, moose, and stilt walking lumber jack musicians, lumber jacks and performance chainsaw artists."

Oh, and apparently one of the moose options is a bucking moose bronco! (Only one rider at a time please.)

If you check out their site here, you just might be able to get it all ordered in time for July 1st. But I don't think the scantily clad girl in the Canada flag bikini standing on an ice break comes with it.

The great weather / tomato debate



I'm confused by the upcoming forecast. What is the difference between "cloudy periods" and "mainly sunny?" Even the descriptive pictures look the same.

Perhaps weather forecasters get bored using the same language day in and day out? Maybe this is their take on tomato vs. tomahto?
