I agree with Brian. If your schedule permits, a quick visit to Ottawa should be contemplated.

And just in case you are looking for another Ford, stop by the Hammond Barn. We have a rather (in)famous Ford that is looking for a new home. The Hammond gang remains Chev-centric and the Ford is nowhere on the radar for restoration.

It really does not matter where you go in Canada, you will meet some very nice people and will enjoy the landscape. Happy trails!

1812 reenactor event in upper Canada VBillage around that time...no CMPs of course, but may be of interest (near Kingston) also.. a couple of events aound july 1 (Canada Day) with some MV participation...one involving the swords and ploughshares group... between Kingston and Ottawa.

As far as i know there is no organized club or group in Quebec, and collectors and vehicles are scattered and not in close contact.. not many from Montreal and Quebec City on this forum.

Hi Marc

Thank you very much for your hints. I'll have a look at that.

Greetings
Chris

I finally got to meet "Swiss Chris" at the OMVA show in Oshawa today. Here is a photo of Chris with some of the MLU characters. There were a lot more MLU members in attendance but no one thought to organize a group photo with Chris ahead of time.
Cheers,
Barry

Jordan, that Photo Shop thingy on my computer sure works well!

Seriously though, I wish we had thought of a group photo. That photo was taken in front of Brian Asbury's flea market stall and we didn't even get him in the photo.
