These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2014-11-03,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers in a single followup to the newsgroup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
All questions were written by members of Unnatural Axxxe, and are
used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may have
been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information see
my 2014-09-15 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
* Game 7, Round 4 - Canadiana - Official Provincial Whatnots.
Every province and territory lends its name to random objects.
There are official provincial and territorial flowers, animals,
rocks, trees, and for all we know, hamburgers. In this round, we'll
name some official things and you name the province or territory.
1. Official motto: "fortis et liber" (strong and free).
Official flower: wild rose.
Official mineral: petrified wood.
2. Official bird: Atlantic puffin.
Official flower: purple pitcher plant.
Official animal: caribou.
3. Official flower: Pacific dogwood.
Official animal: spirit bear.
Official fish: Pacific salmon.
4. Official flower: lady slipper.
Official bird: blue jay.
Official motto: "parva sub ingenti" (the small under the great).
5. Official flower: blue flag iris.
Official bird: snowy owl.
Official tree: yellow birch.
6. Official bird: rock ptarmigan.
Official animal: Canadian Eskimo dog.
Official symbol: inukshuk.
7. Official bird: common loon.
Official tree: eastern white pine.
Official mineral: amethyst.
8. Official flower: western red lily.
Official animal: white-tailed deer.
Official mineral: potash.
9. Official flower: prairie crocus.
Official animal: plains bison.
Official fish: walleye.
10. Official flower: mountain avens.
Official animal: Arctic grayling.
Official mineral: diamond.
Game 7, Round 6 - Geography - The Great Lakes
Yeah, they're pretty great. And as "the witch of November comes stealin'",
here's a round on those big, glacial holes on the Canadian Shield that
contain nearly 1/5 of all the fresh water in the world.
With only 5 lakes to consider, answers may repeat.
1. But for the Straits of Mackinac, these two Great Lakes would
be one big lake. Name them both.
2. Off the shores of Lake Huron, in Huron County, is the largest
salt mine in the world. Near what Ontario town is it found?
3. Babe Ruth hit his first professional home run into Lake Ontario,
where the ball presumably remains. What was the location
of the game? We want the specific well-known location on
Toronto's shore.
4. Our Lake Ontario isn't the only one. There's also an Ontario
Lacus on one of the solar system's major moons. It's not water
but methane, ethane, and propane. Which moon is it on?
5. Which Great Lake sits entirely within the borders of the US?
6. The biggest Great Lake, Lake Superior, is also the youngest.
Within 2,000 years, how old is it?
7. One Great Lake has suffered the most impact from
industrialization; its drainage basin includes 17 cities
with metropolitan areas of 50,000 or more. Which one?
8. As noted by Longfellow and Lightfoot, what is the Chippewayan
name for Lake Superior?
9. In 1915 at the Chicago docks, what part did the steamer Eastland
play in Great Lakes history?
10. How many crew were lost when the freighter Edmund Fitzgerald
sink in 1975?

10,000 years (accepting 8,000-12,000). 4 for Dan Tilque.
3 for Dan Blum and Pete.
That's when the ice retreated from that bit of North America at the
end of the last ice age. The other lakes are older because they are
farther south and therefore the ice retreated sooner.

Erie. 4 for Dan Blum, Joshua, and Marc. 2 for Pete.
It has the smallest volume of water and is also downstream from the
Detroit River and three other Great Lakes. (Lake Ontario is still
further downstream, but has more water.)
When I was in high school I entered a physics contest run by the
University of Waterloo here in Ontario, and one of the questions
related to water flowing over Niagara Falls. The question ended
with: "Assume that the effluent from Lake Erie is indeed water."
Things have improved somewhat since those days, though.

The worst disaster. Specifically, it capsized and over 800 people
were killed. 4 for Joshua, Pete, and Dan Tilque.

"The ship bell chimed till it rang 29 times, for each man on the
