I can't believe this is still for sale. Somebody buy this before I do something... unreasonable

Re: Oriena Currie, The Pinball Queen of Canada

Looking through my pile of Canadian Coin Box Magazines, I stumbled upon another article about the Pinball Queen of Canada.
The article is from the February 1977 Canadian Coin Box Magazine titled Oriena Currie sets tough pace.

You could go the long way round... Drive East down the 17. Cross into Quebec by the bridge in Hawkesbury and work your way West back to Gatineau.
