COLD ENOUGH FOR YOU?
We should just take over Canada, like a 14th Colony. Then we wouldn’t have to worry about them exporting oil to us.
Are you nuts??! Then we’d have to install hot-air ducts up there. I don’t know how they survive. Summer is the first week of August. I had to go to a place called Moosejaw. It made Minnesota look like a sauna. I just kept driving south until the wind didn’t hurt my face anymore.
Just let them be hewers of wood, and drawers of water oil. They’re polite but rustic, and a bit naïve. Biden will handle them.

When my grandfather emigrated from Austria in the early 1900’s the quota had already been met. He went to work in Moosejaw Saskatchewan for 2 years before he was allowed to enter. Strange days.

I’d congratulate you for being half-Canadian, but that place is more foreign to me than Maine, or Austria. 😉 🙂

And such an odd choice. I never did get an answer to my ‘why there’ question.

Canada is something I seldom think about, which, considering it is a whole separate country, is a compliment! Its especially nice to have it for some comparisons, e.g. health care. Some of the few other thoughts I have had about it involved the Keystone XL pipeline, Ann Murray and Alex Trebek. You are good neighbors.

I’ll keep doing my part. On a per capita basis, we have as many nutters as you – sometimes just in a different direction. 😉 🙄

I have a friend who lives in Saskatchewan. She’s the source of most of what I know at Canadian weather. Brrrrrrrrr.

The Prairie Provinces can be lovely in the (short) summer, but frigid cold, snowy and windy in winter. A reader once told me of moving from Calgary to Winnipeg. In each city, blocks and blocks and blocks of downtown buildings were inter-connected underground with tunnels and adjoining sub-basements. You could travel for miles in comfort, until you had to return to your car – which might be plugged in to an electrical outlet, with a block-heater keeping the motor oil warm. I’m happy to live in Southern Ontario, level with Detroit and Chicago. 🙂

How did the hipster burn his tongue??
He drank coffee before it was cool. 🙄
But that doesn’t take much time in large portions of Canada. 😆
