#1. Do people over there even know what fries are since you all call them chips?

#2. Your food is pricey! Even for an event the food is way too expensive...........heck even if the prices were in USD or CD they were too expensive.

#3. I must have missed it if you posted it..........what was your job there for the day?

#4. Very nice photos, thanks for sharing.

#5. If I can figure out how to change your avatar tonight I'm going to change it 8-)

What a refreshing photographic tour! Thanks for sharing, Tinks. I sure could go for a bison burger & chips rite now.

Those food stands reminded me of one of the Lake Accotink Annual Cardboard Boat Regattas (http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/Parks/Accotink/cbbr.htm) I had the pleasure of attending a few years ago. I ordered a burger from one of the food vendors, and she asked, "What would you like on your burger? Cheese? Lettuce and tomato? Grilled peppers and onions?"

"Yes," I replied, with a huge grin. She did a double take, and I elaborated, "All those toppings sound good, if I can have them."

The lady standing next to me chuckled and said, "You're my kind of guy!"

Nice photos and thanks for sharing. I thought I would add a little information about PetroCanada (in hockey photo). Around here we call them PetroScam – ever thing cost more and they are always gypping people out of petro points.
PetroCanada is trying to monopolies on gas stations in BC and I hope the government steps in and stops them. Cheers!
What's pushing us apart isn't loneliness what's holding us together isn't love. Listen to the man who's been touched all his life yes he's the one they call the fool. Where is that savoir of the sidewalk life and the road that takes us to the crusades? We still got along way to go yes we still got a along way to go.
