can't really remember much... just stuff like the tooth fairy and santa

one of my favourites is what my wife believed until she was probably into her early teens. her brother is 2 years older than her and was born in canada. she was born in england and shortly after she was born the family moved back to canada. she never got official 'canadian citizenship' (i guess she just was canadian becuz she came to canada at a month or two old). they grew up on the westside of kelowna and one day (she would have still been pretty young - primary school age) as they were coming down bridge hill (the hill on hwy 97 right before okanagan lake) a cop had a guy pulled over. her brother blurts out that she better duck down in the back seat becuz he was checking for people who didn't have their canadian citizenship and if they found any they would send them away. i guess the fact that their mom just laughed and didn't correct her brother convinced her it was true - so for years she was always on the watch for rcmp cruisers and if any had a guy pulled over she would duck down and hope they didn't see her.

ha! ha!
