I'm not making fun, it's just the idea is funny. The youth have a difficult time enjoying the activities that other kids in Canada do. Disco, or clubbing is just not done.
The kids spend a great deal of time wandering about, or gathering in each other's home, or going to the community centre. A basic life, tough for the youth. Not many distractions. Thank goodness for MTV.
Dress Code: Jeans, runners, t-shirts, denim jackets, and of course the required baseball cap.
