Oh I've got a bottle from Adanac, never heard of Carlton Club. Yeah that's a good one for sure, not often you find flat tops for small brands like that.
Does your Carlton Club have metric units on it? I saw this post which suggests they were using flat top cans much later than almost anyone else, likely well into the 1970s https://sodacancollection.blogspot.com/2011/08/o-canada.html

Geez RCO you have a lot of luck finding stuff up north!
does anyone use trash cans? lol :)

well being a wooded and rural area , there was a lot of places people dumped stuff back in the days

but apparently some people do use the trash bins , wait till you read my new post about what I found in one

found some more cans , unfortuently nothing from this woodlot seems to be in good condition , found some cans there last year and everything pretty far gone .

a small Cplus Orange can from the early 90's or late 80's , 3 Mason's Cola cans ( apparently they are Canadian and from 60's era ) but pretty far gone at this point , a Dominion Ginger Ale can ( assuming from the Dominion / A&P grocery store chain , some rusty coca cola and pepsi cans and a really faded " Fresca " can

much quieter week in terms of cans found , although I did find a 7 up from the 80's ? , Orange crush from the 70's and a Diet Pepsi from late 80's/early 90's . its the metal version which is often pretty damaged when found , also a grape crush from same area nearby and it was almost entirely rusted away

nothing worth keeping but cleaned up the Howdy to see if it was really a Howdy can , its for root beer flavour .

the mountain dew seems to have some sort of contest on the can ( buckshots ) , which seem to be common back then

randomly found another area near a roadway where there had been some dumping , mostly 70's era stuff but a few other odds and ends in the same spot

cans found - Canada dry bitter lemon , sprite , diet pepsi ( were dozens of these just picked a couple with the most colour , orange crush , fresca , coca cola and the green bottle is a Canada dry 28 oz

also found a broken 7 up bottle with shield design and unusual Toronto - Barrie - Hamilton - London markings on back ( near a tree and not part of the 70's dumping )

and a June 75 Ontario plate , some damage but a lot of colour , clue as to the date of the cans I'd assume

also found a Molson Export steel can at another spot on the weekend , still has some colour , assuming 70's or early 80's era .

seems like a beer that's seen better days , often find there older aluminum cans but don't see modern Molson export cans much even though you can still buy it today , it doesn't seem to be popular anymore
