Extra fee for a youyou in tow.
Imagine my surprise when I was asked to pay extra fees for my youyou. In the Parks of the St. Lawrence a youyou is now considered a second vehicle, as though you would be driving both vehicles in and out of the Parks to explore the area or go shopping. This a $10.50 Cdn plus tax per day for the youyou. It increases significantly the cost of overnighting let alone staying a whole week at the Parks. There are eight campgrounds along the St. Lawrence River in Ontario. I used to camp there regularly, but no more. There are other camping nearby just as good with no extra fees for a youyou. I certainly hope this is not a trend. Anyhow, I thought I would pass along this piece of information that certainly caught me off guard.
If ever you disagree with this policy and would like to voice your opinion to the Parks authorities here is the email address: getaway@parks.on.ca

Youyou is usually followed by a derogatory remark to complete the thought. It goes something like this:
Martha, I'm leaving you for another woman!
John. Youyou cad!
--works better if you say it like Bogey and Bacall.

You know from reading the OP post I was able to figure out what they were talking about. I did not even have to Google it.

OPs profile says they are from Quebec where a lot of French is spoken. Google 'youyou French' and it pops right up. And it said dinghy, not toad. I always thought toad should be towed anyway
