Lamb's Navy Dark Rum 151.........is it Canadian distilled or just bottled in Canada?

I don't find it in Alaska and can only bring one bottle back from Whitehorse.
Maxum shotgun shells, Whiz-Bang .22 ammo, KKSP rifle bullets. I’m definitely aging myself.🙄

The Bay is about caput. We have several of the wool blankets. My wife has a white coat with the stripes.

We just moved the 1977 Baymart fridge to the shed a few years ago.
Buddy had this on his table at the gun show last week. And, yes, it's Canadian.

I don't know who owns the company, the old Players Navy Cut cigarettes, will tell you what a coffin nail is all about.

Oh, almost forgot. CIL/Dominion Sabre Tip bullets. Long before anyone else even dreamed of plastic tips.

Richard—those blankets are worth a small fortune. I was in Toronta a couple of years ago at the downtown Bay store—4 point blanket was over $800 and the white Capote was $1200

Not any more. Plant is torn down and they’re building housing. Was bought out by Maple Leaf, I think. Plant closed probably 15 years ago.

............ I recall Red Rose tea very well here in the states back in the 1950's at my Scottish grandparents house. They never had coffee in the house but plenty of tea. IIRC Red Rose is still around (?).

Yup, the original Ballistic Tip! When I was a kid and knew everything, I used to laugh at my dad for using the budget CIL ammo, while I used the more expensive Winchester stuff. The old man knew more than I realized

Sure is. Very popular here in the Maritimes.
Malkin's jams, their Black Currant jam was the best, ever.
Missing the obvious: Canadian Tire.
