Hi, everyone. I have been reading the great articles on Steve's main website, and decided to visit the forum. What an interesting place!

Hey back! I'm new here as well - and from that awesome country you mentioned!

Can you flesh out that public profile a bit?
Canada East or West, gender, age...
Nice to know, y'know, eh?

Hi, fellow Canadians! I'm a woman (of a certain age), from the Maritimes. I put a bit of info in my profile, as much as I feel comfortable posting online. You are welcome to send a p.m. if there is a specific question.

Lovely to meet you.

I spent last summer in Canada - from Vancouver, BC to Toronto and Ottawa. Your country is absolutely gorgeous!

Hello, Bisha and Eli!
I'm glad you enjoyed your summer in Canada, Bisha. Someday I'd love to travel to the UK. I have always been fascinated by the standing stones, (and of course there are the Rolling Stones

); and so many years of history and literature.

Eli, much of Canada has a climate similar to the northern U.S. states. In the far north in winter, temperatures can drop to -40 degrees or less, at times. Because of global warming, we have had a series of milder winters lately. It has been within a few degrees + or - of the freezing point so far in our area, this season. If you visit in the summer, you'll find it most agreeable.

It's funny that - people always mention Stone Henge as a big tourist spot here, but it's far from the first thing that pops into my mind (though it is very mysterious). I suppose it's because I'm such a London girl

I hear there's been some wicked snowstorms in the Edmonton area (west coastish?)

You'll love our weather if you love surprisingly warm summers and lots and lots of rain!
