    Hi

    Want to say right away that I am in no way trying start a seperate site or forum and have nothing but the greatest thanks for this site and all the help it's given me, and I fully intend to be a member for a long time.
    I was just wondering if there were some way of listing / finding out who are canadian owners as opposed to guys in the states. Purely because I think it's great when someone says "Hey I'm in dallas (ie) and only a short hop from where you're having your problems" Plus someone that you could meet up with and compare stories etc.. - dallas being a little far to go lol.

    Any thoughts?

      Quebec and Ontario

      Alberta, British Columbia

      Manitoba;Saskatchewan

      Maine;New Brunswick;Nova Scotia;New Foundland;Prince Edward Isle

      Don't let that snake bite you!

          Interesting that you would answer like that, osea... When SWMBO and I travel south of the line, the locals pick us out right away as being from somewhere else. Funny thing is, though, we often get asked if we're from Wisconsin!! I figure I've got to get over that way one day just to see where the confusion might come from.

            I'm an English ex-pat so I usually get asked what part of Australia I'm from.

                Yah, da accent can get pretty tick around here, hey.

                Worked with a guy from "Tronto". The man could not avoid the 'eh' at the end of every sentence to save his life. Another Canuk was always saying "Yah Oui". Guessing Ontario maybe, some class of weegie/french thing going on there.

                I was living in Dallas and speaking with some customer service girl from Verizon or something. I asked her if she was from Canada. She seemed surprised I could tell, got all flustered aboot it!
