Craig from Canadian History Ehx returns to once again rob us of sleep.  What's the most damage mother nature could possibly do in one hour?  Edmonton, Alberta found out in 1987.  Tornadoes, the Fujita scale, Canadian devastation, and... you better believe it... a trailer park.   Craig's song pick:: The Twist by Chubby Checker https://open.spotify.com/track/3ohLnESFgYACPMCkoTOzqE?si=20be1cdd28fb4365   Leigh's song pick:: The End Of All Things by Nomeansno https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV3ZRbI_sng   Peter's song pick:: Reitschule by Do Make Say Think https://open.spotify.com/track/6yphInZNlAZLR4z51sswJP?si=decdffc4dc9d408a   If you like what you hear, please subscribe and leave a review!
