Another one for the read list: I just purchased Brew North - How Canadians Made Beer and Beer Made Canada by Ian Coutts
Before cable TV and the internet, rural Ontario was several years behind urban/suburban Ontario and vacations were like a trip back in time. Not only would you see kids your age with crew cuts but you would pass places with separate entrances for Ladies and Escorts and there were those old liquor stores where you had to filll in a slip of paper and take it to the counter to buy booze. This is a reminder of those days and so much more.
