Rock the Casbah is a store in the Action Zone section of Canada's Wonderland. It deals primarily in rock and comic book apparel and assorted memorabilia, and is targeted towards teens. It is next to the Xtreme Skyflyer, in an area that was considered part of The Grande Exposition of 1890, until 2008. RtC is labelled on the 2008 map simply as Rock, and the store is supposedly located in a small separate building, slightly north of where it actually is. The pamphlet's "Wonderland Merchandise" section lists it as Rock Shop.

[...] He put bass and drums on it, and it sounded brilliant. He did the whole thing himself. He presented it to Joe with this soppy set of lyrics abou how much he missed his girlfriend. Joe just took one look at these words and said 'How incredibly interesting!', screwed the piece of paper into a ball and chucked it backwards over his head. Topper's face! Joe said 'Look, I write the bloody words. I've got a set of lyrics that will fit this already.' And that was what became 'Rock The Casbah'."
