As is my way, each year, I post a link for downloading this wonderful audio production read by the late Mr. Alan Maitland of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
I first heard it while tuned to the CBC's high-power regional stations on the ADF during a flight from the north with an aircraft full of teachers going home for Christmas. The episode ended as I was turning final for an instrument approach to minimums at my home airport with zero traffic in the air for hundreds of miles except me ... it was quite memorable.
Regards to all and a Merry Christmas.
