Al Charron in the Team Canada camp

Good to see Rugby Canada hire Al to mentor Canada's team in the lead-up to and during the World Cup. His experience and sense of humour and comaradarie should prove invaluable:

Canada’s most capped player and four-time World Cup participant, Al Charron, will join Canada’s World Cup staff for the upcoming tournament in France this September. He will also accompany Canada on its pre-World Cup tour to New Zealand in June.

Now... I wonder if that means Charron will restrain himself on his "Letters From Al" columns at Rugby Canada. Hope not.
