it is...these are the tunes/Canadian paintings that i love...the Skiddadler's also from the movie Ron was in... when i subscribed to Canadian Indy Film channel in the mid 90s, it was the first film i circled in the guide and later sat down to watch in full, with a stubby, or two...lol

i had immediately thought, why didn't they have a film like this (so well preserved) of Gord and others performing way back when at the Horseshoe, plus these type of humorous video diversions

i miss those old tank-like, heavy streetcars taking me down to the CNE, etc

these days, you get on those AC hard seated, futuristic ones and if the driver picks his nose or shuts his eyes at a stoplight, for even a second, you can bet some teenager is capturing it on cellphone and posting it to youtube hoping it goes viral...they at least know that the online version of thestar.com will have a link to it, lol
