Gills Not Required: Public Transport Options
For the eco-warriors and budget buccaneers, public transport is a fantastic option.

Top Tip: While you wait for the bus, impress your companions with dramatic pronouncements about the approaching "mighty steed of steel."
- Bus Only: Feeling peckish? The 388 bus will take you from the Perth Busport to Warwick Station, where you can snag some fish and chips (the irony is delicious) before hopping on the trusty 423 bus to complete your journey.
Warning: Resist the urge to yell "All aboard the HMS Fishfinder!" Some passengers might not share your enthusiasm.

The Burning Question: How Many Canadians Does it Take to Win the Stanley Cup (As a Maple Leaf, Obviously)?
Ah, the Toronto Maple Leafs. A team steeped in history, tradition, and...well, let's just say a healthy dose of heartbreak. But one question that burns brighter than the CN Tower on a summer night is this: just how many Canadians are there on this team anyway?
Are the Maple Leafs Basically a Canadian National Treasure...On Skates?
Not quite. While the Leafs are undoubtedly a source of national pride (and, occasionally, national despair) for Canada, the roster itself is a delightful mix of nationalities. Think of it as a delicious international poutine – savory Canadian with some tasty international flavors sprinkled in for good measure.
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.
So, How Many Canadians Are We Talking Here?
Buckle up, because this might surprise you. As of today, the Maple Leafs boast a whopping 13 Canadian-born players on their roster! That's right, over half the team likely knows the best places to find a good beaver tail (look it up, it's delicious). Now, that's what we call representin'!
But Don't Those Foreigners Spoil the Fun?
Not a chance! These international players bring their own brand of talent and skill to the table, forming a formidable force alongside their Canadian comrades. Besides, who would they yell at in good-natured Canadian banter if everyone was from here?
So, the More Canadians, the Better the Chance of Winning the Cup, Right?
Well, that's the dream, isn't it? There's something undeniably special about seeing a homegrown team hoist the Stanley Cup. But remember, hockey is a team sport. Dedication, talent, and a healthy dose of luck all play a part.
Here's the takeaway: A strong showing of Canadian players is a good sign for the Leafs, but it's not a guarantee.
FAQ: You Ask, We (Sort of) Answer!
How to count the number of Canadians on the Maple Leafs?
- Grab a roster (online or on the fridge at the arena – yes, those still exist!).
- Look for the little flag next to each player's name. The maple leaf = Canadian!
- Use your fancy math skills to add them all up.
How to cheer on the Maple Leafs (Canadian or not)?
- Learn the words to the anthem (bonus points for enthusiastic air-guitaring during the guitar solo).
- Stock up on blue and white apparel (bonus points for wearing a winter coat in July because the arena AC is brutal).
- Practice your best "Let's Go Leafs!" chant.
How to deal with disappointment if the Leafs don't win the Cup (again)?
- Acknowledge your feelings. It's okay to be sad!
- Distract yourself with another Toronto sports team (the Raptors are pretty good).
- Remember, there's always next year...right?
