Great Fish Country The leading industry of Canada to fishing
The excerpt notes fishing as Canada’s major industry with an annual catch around 50 million dollars and 100000 workers. A dialog about fundraising for a trip appears, plus a punny riddle about a cat in a well and a remark by a son of an efficiency expert. The tone mirrors period magazine humor.
