Going to Canada!

Hey Canadians, brace yourselves!


Tomorrow I'm going on a trip to Canada. I will be there for the weekend, in Montreal. I've been to Quebec before but, that was a long time ago. Should be a good time!

Dress warm- supposed to be cold, with several inches of snow! If you like good food and good clubs, you'll love it. Great town.

Hi, MustangGT221

I'm from Montréal and wish you a good time in town.
Beware it is going to be cold over the weekend, you'll need the good restaurant and the beautiful french girls. Learning french is useful.
Say after me: "Voulez vous coucher avec moi ??"

Watch out for the polar bears, and the poutines. Those poutines are vicious: they'll leap out of their burrows in the tundra and lunge at your throat.

I resemble that remark. BTW, does "Southern Hospitality" include any single redneck girls.

Poutine

C'mon, Dennis, try it. It ain't that bad, as long as it comes from New York Fries.

MustangGT221: Have a great time up here.

I'm going to Canada this weekend, too. Sick Father-in-law. If it wasn't for that, don't think I'd be going to the Great White this time of year. If you look on a world map, I live right on the 45th parallel here in Oregon. Where the in-laws live in Nova Scotia is further south than here. (You have to look on the world map. Nova Scotia doesn't usually show up on the US map. I think it's because the map makers didn't know Canada was inhabitable, or something. I'm still not sure myself.. )

I was up in Bellingham, WA last week and it's further north than say, Victoria. Wish I was going there. They serve Poutine on the ferryride over!

For you guys down south..When I first met my wife years ago, she would carry on about wanting to go to Techass. That went on for a while, till I asked her to point it out on the map. I've pronounced Texas the wrong way ever since.
