That's still like, Near North at best. I bet they only have like three Anglican churches in towns North of Sudbury.

Why does Magnetewan sound familiar to me? Is there a Magnetewan lake/access point in Algonquin?

Hey, I was not too far away from there recently. Went to the Legion in Burk's Falls a couple of weeks ago.

What's so crazy about those combo stores are they are exactly what TBS says with their PR machine will be the downfall of society if beer was in corner stores.
Well I asked them about this, and they emailed me back that corner liquor stores authorized by the LCBO are magically different than other kinds would be, much to my relief - the children are still safe!

They also sent me some coupons for hunting rifles & ammo to use at this same store, so I'm not pushing this any further 'cos I really like firearms.

Yup, Tim and Magnetawan Lakes are access points off 518 Highway, Village of Magnetawan is about halfway between Magnetawn Lake and where the river empties into Georgian Bay

Used to play a lot of hockey in the Burk's Falls arena across from the legion
