Description
The Canadian landscape is home to some pretty odd sights; for example, the UFO landing pad in St. Paul, Alberta, the ice hotel in Québec City or Casa Loma, Canada's only castle. This book humorously inventories many real estate oddities found across the country. Welcome to the True North strange to see.
