A place to stand, a place to grow

A Place to Stand, A Place to Grow (Ontari-ari-ari-o!) was the unofficial anthem of the Canadian province of Ontario, written to celebrate Canada's 1967 Centennial.  It was the signature tune for a movie of the same name that was featured at the Ontario Pavilion at Expo 67 in Montreal.

On January 12, 2004, at the former Molson Breweries plant in Barrie, a marijuana grow-op was uncovered, housing an estimated 30,000 marijuana plants with an estimated street value of $30 million.  At the time, it was the largest marijuana grow-op bust in Canada's history.

An episode of comedian Rick Mercer's Monday Report took the song, A Place to Stand, A Place to Grow (Ontari-ari-ari-o!), added some visual effects, and created about the funniest commentary on the subject of Ontario-based pot growing.
