10 signs you grew up in Oakville
Ask anybody who claims they'refrom Torontoabout where they grew up, and most will cautiously admit they're from one of the suburbs. Frankly, it's just easier (and way cooler) to say you'refrom Toronto. But the truth is growing up outside the city offered a completely otherworldly experience. Anyone who did their time in Oakville knows exactly what I mean.
Here are 10 signs you grew up in Oakville.
1.哟u've been to a bush party in one of the many ravines, or in Lion's Valley. Bonus points if the cops showed up and chased you away.
2.哟u've spotted Donovan Bailey, Pinball Clemons, Ron MacLean, or Tom Cochrane shopping at Oakville Place.
3.哟u jumped off the Lakeshore bridge into 16 Mile Creek, or laughed at someone who did.
