At the end of June we are taking a trip to the zoo to visit my relatives.  If you would like to go, and need that police check ($15 + HST), here is the link.  There appears to be about a month wait.  After you receive your report, I have a blue form for you to fill out.  You even get to watch this video too.

But, after all this, you get to spend an enjoyable day at the zoo for free.
