    Ending of Canada Obscura 💜

    Hey everyone, we have decided to end Canada Obscura because we could not continue to dedicate time and effort to it as it deserves and that means you have not been getting the quality content you deserve. This journey has been nothing short of absolutely amazing, and we're so so so grateful to you following us and being here with us and for letting us do this silly show week after week. We hope you've enjoyed it, we hope you learned some stuff about Canada and about us, and we hope you take love for Canada with you. Thank you so much for being so wonderful, we love you so very much. We hope you've enjoyed this ride, take care of yourselves, and stay weird. 💜💜💜
