Clarence Like Sees Toronto Arrival Through Harsh Route Echoes

Clarence Like describes his arrival in Toronto after visiting his parents at Ketrime. He recalls the Trans Canada Road’s challenges including muskeg, highway gangs booby traps, and free roadside safety service. The journey from Toronto to Winnipeg covered about 1400 miles, with 350 miles of rough road and the Wasagamang area in Manitoba. The route spanned rolling terrain, near straight eastern progression from Mint Leapolis toward Winnipeg, with lengthy sections of infertile flat farm country and sparsely populated landscapes.

Journey Through Ontario to Keewatin and Seed Growers Role

A rugged Ontario drive from Fort William toward Keewatin highlights wild rock ledges, lakes and pike filled waters. The piece warns of unsafe highway hazards, notes a dead bear shot by workers, and urges patience for a northern route. It also extols the Canadian Seed Growers Association and its seed standards, praising breeders and foundation stocks that enable large scale, true to variety seeds via strict regulation.
