Mark, have you ever heard of The Littlest Hobo? It's a (now old) Canadian TV show about a dog who would roam from town to town and manage to help solve problems or save lives. A planeswalker dog reminds me of him and his iconic theme song.

You should watch the latest episode of Tap Tap Concede by Loading Ready Run. : )

For birthday trivia (mine got lost) i wanted to ask a more down to earth question: Mark, as a gamer that frequently has family game nights, was there a game your family liked to play when you were growing up?

We played a lot of different family games. In fact, we got the very first Trivial Pursuit when you had to import it from Canada. The history questions were all about Canadian history.

Canadian, but we also celebrate Boxing Day here. In the modern day, Boxing Day is essentially a shopping holiday, not completely unlike Black Friday. There's nothing else in the modern incarnation really - though historically I understand it was where the wealthy would give to the poor or the hired help

FYI

Hi mark! I'm a little confused. Maybe it's just my view from Canada, but why are college's all on the same campus?

I went to Boston University, but my college at the university was the College of Communications, but there were many other colleges like College of Liberal Arts or the College of Education.

Hey, Mark, in your last couple of Drive to Works, you've talked a lot about travelling! However, you didn't mention your visit to Victoria, BC, Canada for the Unstable Pre-Prerelease in December of 2017 in your list of places you've gone for WOTC, nor was it mentioned as your other "trip" for 2017? Is it because it's not a WOTC-hosted event, or did it just not make much of an impression on you? Is it an indication that you're not interested in doing this again?

I’ve just done a lot of traveling and forgot. I had a great time on my trip to Victoria.

Did you know that Canadian milk comes in bags?

I did not. Never know what new facts you’ll learn on Blogatog. Come from the Magic behind-the-scenes info, stay for the Canadian trivia.

I have a really weird request. Region specific tokens. I believe tokens are the only way to do region specific cards well. I'm talking like for example, doing bear tokens and the bears are based on regional bears. US: Black Bear, Canada and Russia: Polar Bear, Australia: Koala Bear, China and South East Asia: Panda Bear, South America: Spectacled Bear, Middle East and India: Sloth Bear. You could do it with birds, or dinos, or insects all from the regions you want to have tokens for.

I’ll pass the suggestion along.

Hey Mark, any Birthday trivia relating to Canada? (It being Canada's birthday today and all)

Canada was the first team, other than the US, to win a world team championship. Happy Canada Day!

"The previous Great Designer Searches had three requirements: 1) You are 18 or older.
2) You are legally able to work in the United States.
3) You are willing to relocate to Seattle." In regards to the second requirement, would WOTC provide a work visa to a Canadian resident?

Sadly no as the prize for winning is an internship and it is very difficult to get a visa for a temporary job.

It is Canada Day! Can I get some Canadian magic trivia for Canada's 150 birthday?

Magic’s very first Prerelease, for Ice Age, WA held in Toronto. Also, the first country to win a world team championship other than the US was Canada. One of the members of that team, Mike Donais, would go on to be in Magic R&D.Happy Canada Day!
