Canada is preparing to remove drunk canoeing as an impaired driving offence, ahead of its plans to legalize marijuana.
Currently the country's Criminal Code means that police hand out drunk driving charges to tipsy canoeists, according to The National Post.
At the moment offenders can continue to canoe, as that does not require a licence, but may face automatic driver's licence suspensions, steep fines, demerit points, ignition unlocking devices and vehicle impoundment.

You are too close, Azuma! Step away from the Canadian! And, drop the Chalupa! It is so hard to be American, caught between great syrup, and great cuisine.

Switch it around with tequila (distilled agave syrup) and poutine.
