Jane, i live NORTH of Canada! A part of michigan is north of part of canada, anyway! I have lots of italian relatives who emigrated to Canada, mostly Ontario, but also Alberta. Ive been to Montreal a couple of times, Niagara Falls, Stratford, and i like to read about mountain climbing Mt Ranier and Denali, and of course we used to watch Hockey Night in Canada when i was growing up.

Also i used to get canadian tv when my apartment bldg still had an external antenna. There was a show, i think it was called Being Erica - just so good. And the daytime "living" show (design, decor, cooking, fashion) with the gay partners, but then the dark haired one died? Loved those guys. Steven and Chris?
