Your dad is the “best ever,” right? But I bet when you ask him,“What would you like for Father's Day?” he never gives you a straight answer. If he did, this is what he would say.

I would love …

1. To test just how tough and waterproof my GoPro is.

2. A big boy adventure with trains, planes and canoes.

3. Premium seats to photograph my favourite “Raptor” in action.

4. To connect with you – without using wi-fi.

5. To earn some bragging rights.

6. To have a wild good time (and not get in trouble for it).

7. To explore a real “Man Cave.”

8. Some outdoor photography lessons.

9. To escape to my own private island.

10. A night out with Ontario’s brightest stars.
