      5. Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford, among other acts caught on police surveillance, urinated on a school wall. Highly symbolic I think.

      7. Now, Joe Matt is apolitical, but the others all have affinity with a type of rogue right wing masculinity: pee populism, if you will.

      9. The stereotype of Canada as a bastion of politeness hides reality of a roughneck, hinterland country: "hoser" culture.

      12. A larger social/material history of Canadian public urination would include 1) popularity of beer 2) cold weather 3) sparse population.
