Description
From the Great Lakes to Hudson Bay, Ontario is a province rich in history—and some of that history is simply weird. Read about the fascinating and funny past of Canada's most populous province: the Toronto Circus Riots of 1865 were started by firemen and clowns brawling in a brothel; Ontario's Parliament got its start in a hospital; Ontario, not Alberta, was the first province to see oil wells in the back-forty; and more.
