Dear C4C. If you had to pick a comic book character that best represents your morals and ideals, who would you pick and why?.. Also, who will win senior men’s war canoe this year? –Anonymous 5th member of the 2001 Jr. Worlds canoe team.

S Dickey... no no that's too obvious, Scott D., thanks for that fantastic question. Always great to hear from a founder. As for the comic book character, that's a tough one... perhaps we could agree on the legendary Batman. Reasons for the choice as follows; gets the job done, inserts a sly comeback from time to time, overcomes adversity, likes to play with cool stuff, has the coolest soonest upcoming move release... enjoys leaping from tall surfaces. How does that work for you? Lastly, this year's senior men's war canoe field will be highlighted by strong crews from Burloak, Banook, Rideau and Trois Rivieres... that sounds about right.
