Al Capone had an Ottawa Valley hideout built not too far from here, according to local legend...there is no reliable record of him ever being seen there, since he was inconveniently busy being in jail and/or dying of cancer by then, but it was definitely connected with him. (For one thing, the local builder was stiffed for most of his money, made a collection journey to Buffalo, and came back without money but still alive after taking some advice from the mob to forget about it...)

So for him to have said that, he must have been somewhat of a bullshitter along with his other moral shortcomings.

Mmario, you must be Canadian alright--you counted!

Q:What did the Ottawa Valley motorist say to the three-headed, one-legged hitchhiker?

A:Same as usual: "G'day, g'day, g'day, hop in!"
