Here's the wikipedia entry, you can watch the NFB short if you scroll to the end of the post, I was going to write here about my love of this classic bit of Canadiana, but I just have way too much to do, I'd even composed some nice things to say about the passing of Kate McGarrigle, such a wonderful talent. It was her death that inspired the series of paintings, "Waiting for the Lake to Freeze/ Thaw" as I'd incorrectly thought that they'd written a song called, "the Skating Song" but it was actually called, "The Swimming Song"
