Got a likely all-day waiting room day here.
Got some quality reading material though. And if I'm really desperate I think there's a Sudoku pad that's been buried in my knapsack for about fifteen years.

I think "knapsack" is a #Canadianism, no?
We also use backpack, but that's usually a physically larger item, in my usage. We don't often use rucksack, but generally understand it, at least in the circles around me in my lifetime.

In Italian we use "zaino", if you want yet another term.

@GustavinoBevilacqua nice – can always use another synonym!
-
The French "Sac a dos" is even more clear!
-
@GustavinoBevilacqua also good.
There's another English word "haversack" which seems archaic to my ears, yet still understandable. Not sure if that's still in modern usage anywhere in the English-speaking world. Maybe UK?
