Did you know? The Canadian Pacific Railway was built more than 135 years ago and stretches 5,000 kilometres across Canada. The most challenging route is through the Rockies – where inclement weather, changing seasons, and mechanical defects can cause significant delays.

In fact, one of the coolest things we experienced while riding the Rocky Mountaineer through the Rockies was going through the Spirals Tunnels, an engineering marvel that helps the train gain elevation without such a dangerous grade. Very cool!

We're actually still in the mountains, travelling through the Kootenays to produce a 3-part video series. Stay tuned!

But without further ado, enjoy the 69th edition of The Weekly Goose, which features a video about Canada's most luxurious train, a travel guide to Banff, a Parks Canada giveaway, and more!

Looking to laugh this week? Watch Canadian comedy icon Norm Macdonald’s final stand-up special on Netflix, which he secretly recorded in 2020, without an audience, all in one take. It's “Nothing Special” (I mean, that's the name), and is filled with his unique brand of dry and sardonic anti-humour that made him a comic icon.
