The Diefenenbaker bunker is about 3 miles from here. It was built for Canada's Prime Minister during the cold war in the late 50s on property owned by the Nanoose Bay Navy base . Years ago I tried sneaking on to the property to have a peak at it but because of my bad luck or stupidity I went while they were having war games and came face to face with a guy laying behind a machine gun on a ground tripod. I was high so it was pretty freaky. Cheers!
