Get the Otay mug.A surprising shithole amongst the pleasant experience that is the rest of Canada. Acres and acres of blight. What with the months of winter, the suicide rate here must be astronomincal. One nice nuance - the numerous Catholic churches names after a variety of lesser-knowns saints.

Get the Northern ontario tuxedo mug.A large glacial lake separating Canada from the American state of New York. The people who inhabit the surrounding areas are known to be considered either insane or simply individuals who make bad decisions. The lake itself is deep and vast, yet filled with creatures too disturbing to be worth mentioning (*cough* lampreys), and bull sharks have even been rumored. The surrounding people choose to kayak, boat, and swim these waters at their leisure, that is when the waters are open. The surfers of Lake Ontario are some of the most badass people you will ever meet, especially in the freezing Rochester and Ontario winters.

Get the Norwich Ontario mug.Petawawa is a town located in eastern portion of Southern Ontario. Situated in the Ottawa Valley, with a population of 14,651 (2006 Census). Petawawa is the most populous municipality in Renfrew County.
The earliest settlement in the Petawawa area was inhabited by the Algonquin First Nation. The name of Petawawa originates from a local Algonquin language word, biidaawewe, meaning "where one hears a noise like this".
In the late 19th century, the area was surveyed and settled by emigres from Scotland, Ireland and Germany. The land was unsuitable for crops, but the heavily forested surroundings were useful for logging. The Canadian military acquired land in the area in 1905, which later became Canadian Forces Base Petawawa. During this period it was used as an internment camp for German POWs during World War II. Later, it became home to the Canadian Airborne Regiment before it was disbanded in 1995. Today, it is one of Canada's largest ground forces bases with members deployed throughout the world on various missions supporting the United Nations in peacekeeping or the War on Terror.
Petawawa was incorporated as a township in 1865. In 1961, the urban area of Petawawa was incorporated as a separate village. On July 1, 1997, the village and township re-amalgamated to form the Town of Petawawa.
