QUOTE (Tennie @ Sep 16 2008, 11:14 PM)  Isn't Winnipeg...pretty much cowboy country? ie, lots of farms and stuff? and..am I remembering correctly that there's skiing not too far away? The location of the show is a bit surprising, but eh. The anchors are still better than Max Bretos, I think. (For those who don't get the show, Max is the token US correspondent. The other guys are all Canadian except for Bobby, who is Scottish). Max is...well, for him I'd borrow zd's icky puke smiley. he's really and truly awful. winnipeg which is in the province of manitoba is countryish, i guess you could compare it to the mid-west of the US. the prairies (lots of flat land and farms, so no skiing) are mostly in saskatchewan & alberta, but it must be said alberta love the cowboy lifestyle as well. the skiing you were referring too is in BC and parts of Alberta where the Rockies run through. anyways most of the population in the western parts of canada is along the US border to the south, you can ask blue who lives in regina (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG: http://www.glennalicious.org/archives/canada-map.gif)

Thanks for the map, Habitant! It's embarrassing but I always mix up the order of the provinces between Ontario and British Columbia. I've been to Vancouver and skiing at Banff but, oddly, never to Toronto or Montreal.

I've been to Vancouver and skiing at Banff but, oddly, never to Toronto or Montreal. hehe ya not much skiing that goes on in monteal nor tin oronto, a;though theres some decent slopes outside the cities. mont tremblant is about 2 hours north of montreal and is very nice ( obviously you cant compare it to the rockies or the alps, etc) but it's very touristy, like a little city of cabins and cottages it's very nice. i normally go to hills that are closer, 45-60 min away. FYI if you ever confused the two with a BCer they just might freak out. they have an inferiority complex (IMG: style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) just because most of the economical political strength resides in ontario and quebec but they feel equally capable and should have a bigger say. just a warning so you dont have your head bitten off.
