"Probert, Probert, what a man: we see him, it’s slam-bam!" --Don Cherry, “Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Techno Mix”

(The "Earth-2 version" of Rob's game...Had to include it here lest something should happen to the Yahoo Group)

UNKNOOWN CANADIANA is an Unknoown Armies game aboot cars, crooks, and the secret occult history of Canada. It's the great Canadian occult road movie that never was (not counting Highway 61, the great Canadian occult road movie that actually is), with Rush on the cassette player and 50 litres of ultra low-emission gasoline under the hood. It’s un voyage de route across a Canada that looks like ours but has an occult underground of polite magickal adepts sitting quietly under its surface.

There are highways with secret names (in both French and English). There are clueless Americans. There are Triscuit crackers garnished with Kraft pimento cream cheese.

What is this game aboot? Well, it’s aboot secrets and history, power and lies, magic, maple syrup, and the metric system. Mostly it’s aboot Canada. Along the way, we’ve got ATVs and Labatt 50, adepts with hockey hair, and the undying Dionne quints. We got Bill Barilko’s orichalka fishing rod, we got the true meaning of Anne of Green Gables, we got the RCMP searching every concession road in the Great White North for the Death Car of Tim Horton. We got diners with vinegar cruits, and we got inuksuit on the side of the road. We got Louis Riel’s unknown third rebellion. All we need is some player characters with a two-four of Timbits and less curiosity than is good for them. Allons-y!
