It's the most beautiful place - like in Canada that I've really ever been to - it is so pretty - it's along the Ottawa river - and so I mean - the whole town is on the river - so there's beaches everywhere - and it's a very outdoorsy outdoorsy - kind of - nature town - and - I mean if you enjoy skiing - like cross-country skiing is very big there - and just all kinds of water sports like - canoeing - or fishing - even biking - just anything outdoors - you know you'll find it in my town - it's very active - outdoorsy town - yeah
