Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates are false. You have to solve the puzzle to determine the real cache location. Don't worry, it's not too hard.

There have been few entertainers as Canadian, and as fervently patriotic as Stompin' Tom Connors.  His extensive catalog covers the vast geography of our home and native land.  I can think of no one more deserving of a Canada Day tribute puzzle cache. 

For this puzzle, each province and territory is assigned a number as follows:

0: Saskatchewan, Newfoundland and Labrador

1: NorthWest Territories

2: Nunavut

3: Nova Scotia

4: Alberta

5: British Columbia, Manitoba

6: Ontario

7: Quebec

8: Prince Edward Island, Yukon

9: New Brunswick.

The actual cache location is at N52 AB.CDE W106 FG.HIJ

Your clues are as follows:

A: "You might think it's goofy, but the man in the moon is a Newfie

     And he's sailin' on to glory, away in the golden dory"

B: "It's Bud the Spud from the bright red mud

      Rollin' down the highway smilin'"

C: "Tillsonburg, Tillsonburg

      My back still aches when I hear that word"

D:"Well the girls are out to Bingo

     And the boys are gettin' stinko"

E: "The bridge came tumblin' down

      And nineteen men were drowned"

F:"My father's a Blue Nose, and his dad through and through

    My mother, she's a blue nose, and her mother's mother too"

G: "From the wheat fields of my heart

      Go find your way to the cool Hudson Bay"

H: "It's the land of shining water

     Where the beaver and the otter

      Play together where the prairie crocus grows"

I: "with long black hair and reindeer underwear

    she weighed about two sixteen

    She's come a long way from --------- ---"

J: "Oh Mr. Hartwell said the nurse I pray that you will guide us

   To save this woman with her child and the boy with appendicitis"

 

 

This shouldn't be that difficult, but it should be fun. Congratulations to saskamanda and theAverageGuy for the Canada Day FTF, and also to DoryXplory and Claryvoyant for stf, because they were, like, really close, and in Canada we value Silver Medals too.
