The Canadian Mounted

The most unique moments in life can sometimes come from those unexpected tangents on the journey.

And that’s one of the things we learn in the 1987 John Hughes film Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

This page is meant to accompany the book The Canadian Mounted and include color images for readers of the audiobook or the eBook versions where those images appear in black and white.
