The late Jack Layton once said “Canada is a great country, one of the hopes of the world.” In these pages you’ll read stories of hope, not just by those of us born here but by others who came to this country from elsewhere. You’ll also read accounts of childhood memories from different parts of the country, how Canadians feel when they’re outside Canada, what it’s like to engage with nature in this vast land, and chronicles of iconic touchstones that make our country unique. We are a group of professional writers who either live or have lived in London, Ontario at some point in our careers and who are current or former members of the Professional Writers Association of Canada. But these stories are not just about our corner of the world in southwestern Ontario. They cover the breadth of the nation, and we hope these true tales of Canadian life will resonate with readers everywhere. Within this book, you will encounter a famous dead elephant, a national hero, possibly Canada’s worst ever hockey team, train travelers, a persistent bear, beautiful sunsets and northern lights. All of them hold some kind of truth that can help us better understand this country – even one about a fur-bearing trout.
