    I started watching your videos for your great hockey tips. Your production style and presentation are just so mellow and helpful. Then this came up in my feed since I sub'd to your channel. Years ago I saw something about a Canadian city a really really long ice rink but for at least 8 years I couldn't remember or find which one. Now that I know, I am seriously going to pack the family and head to Ottawa. The wife, myself, and our 10 & 5 year old (girl/boy both hockey players) are going to spend an entire day skating that canal! This is amazing. Cannot wait until they get home from school so I can show them your video!
