Geocache Description:

"In a democracy, government isn't something that a small group of people do to everybody else, it's not even something they do for everybody else, it should be something they do with everybody else." Kim Cambell, March 25,1993

Posted for Tick and Nammy's Go and Get 'Em Three Event!! (But it will be there long after the BBQ coals cool down....and is in a good spot for night and winter hunts)

The posted co-ordinates are NOT those of the cache…to find it, one needs to do a little research about Canada's 25th Prime Minister - Kim Campbell. To find the co-ordinates of the cache, you will need to solve the following puzzle:

subsitute the letters for the numbers in the answers to the following:

ab - The day of the month that she was born x2

c - Number of female Prime Ministers of Canada

d - The final digit of the phone number of the Canadian Consulate General in Los Angeles

e - Number of husbands -2
