Oh, and if you do use a credit card, AMEX can be a bit of an issue. At least here in Quebec. It is not accepted at a lot of places.

There once was a man from Quebec
Stood in snow that was up to his neck
When they asked, "Ain't you friz?"
He replied, "Yes, I is,
"But they don't call this cold in Quebec!"

With a live moose on the BBQ, no doubt.

Thought of this comment today....
The University of Georgia held a spring practice outside in 40 degree weather and a stiff wind.
They let the press in and the first question they asked was "why the hell is the new defensive assistant coach wearing shorts in this weather?"
Answer: "He coached in Minnesota last year".

Amazing the weather you get used to. My dad told a story of how some folk were amazed at the family on the beach a particularly cold May 24 weekend. It was us just after coming to Canada. A cold Victoria Day weekend was just about right for a family from the northeast coast of the UK.
I still think I live about 500 miles to far south for my liking. Too damn hot in the summer and winters too hit and miss.
If it wasn't for the damn black flies... *shudders*

And be known to be a furriner? Most of us can spot a Yank a mile off. No need to worry - we just want your money, eh?
Bay & Davenport... pricy area. You (Vat) should get fleeced appropriately.

You mean, you just want real money, eh?
No! Your money. Ours is backed up by massive resources. Yours is backed up by population and the service industry. We have assets. You have some free capital. Assets beat capital.

One last question. Is Canada a civilized country that I can use the dollar wherever I go or should I pick up some of their monopoly money for running around....
You do realize that your own fiat currency is coloured to cordinate with actual monopoly money?
It couldn't be, it's all the same color.

I went to Yelp to answer question in first place. Certainly don't have first hand knowledge. You use street hookers you are one sick puppy!

All the better to adjust the balance of payments in OUR favour, for a change.
Please don't get him going...
