This is a true Canadian. If you wanted to show the world what Canadians are like, Walter is as Canadian as it gets
@Zig Field My father is the best father in the world, so yours should be to you!
@Koko Skenderbeu My after died when I was in my 20’s.
Cherish your dad!

@Zig Field How can you say that, I never knew him, and I don’t like hockey it’s pointless.
Walter is a role model for all Canadian fathers . There are many great canadian fathers . I know because I have one .
I met Walter Gretsky during a tournament I was playing in. Fantastic guy, I still have the stick he signed for me 25 years later. I used that stick in every game I played.
