Tripping on the Trans-Can

Canadian teenagers in the 1970s: an exclusive photo gallery.
"I was told by several US resisters that I would never be accepted to document a commune because I did not use grass but found it was possible to pass a joint without comment in this ad hoc commune in the woods of Northern Ontario. The two young sisters had traveled from Vancouver. A deserter facing extradition hides out for the summer." Photo and commentary by Joan Latchford.
