I am currently in Japan (until 27 November).  For now, email is the best way to get in touch.

 

A commission from the Globe and Mail’s Report on Business magazine.  If you like, the article is here.

 

In contrast to previous trips to the region, I relied on the road to lead me around. Highway 63, notorious for fatal accidents, links Wood Buffalo to the south. Pay loads like this one are common to see and hint of what lies just a few kilometers ahead. Overall, an excellent trip.
