Yup, I absolutely love going down to the states. No I don't steal any of your guys domestic freight :P
Banff is beautiful. I remember a few years back, all the federal campgrounds in Canada were on strike. Free camping! Theres nothing like waking up in the morning, opening your tent, and there's a mountain right there! As far as slang and Canada, well there is nowhere near as much as in the states. I mostly hear "rhubarb" around Minnesota, to be honest. You yankees light the CB up compared to us canucks.

Question for ya. Why does a Canadian beer company... Molson.... use a picture of the Maroon Bells (in Colorado) on their mirrors/advertising??? Who are they kidding?? And why don't they use Canadian mountains? It's ALMOST enough to make me NOT want to drink their beer!!! Almost. I actually LOVE a good cold Molson Golden!!  ops: :lol:

molson is technically a us company,
labatt is a australian company and bud is a canadian company, go figure whoever owns the companys has to put something from thier country of origin in the advertising.

I wouldn't Identify myself with the likes of Celine Dion. Also I don't know why the have Killians IRISH red, or Blue Moon, A "belgian" beer. Its all made here in the states!

You have answered one of the 3 remaining unanswered questions of life for me!!! I didn't KNOW it was a Coors brand! NOW it makes (somewhat) perfect sense to use the Maroon Bells! (not really!) More importantly.... NOW I can have a Molson without feeling like an unfaithful husband!!!
