A land of vast distances and rich natural resources, Canada became a self-governing dominion in 1867 while retaining ties to the British crown. Economically and technologically the nation has developed in parallel with the US, its neighbor to the south across an unfortified border. Canada's paramount political problem is meeting public demands for quality improvements in health care and education services after a decade of budget cuts. The issue of reconciling Quebec's francophone heritage with the majority anglophone Canadian population has moved to the back burner in recent years; support for separatism abated after the Quebec government's referendum on independence failed to pass in October of 1995.

No more skiing at Big White

North America » Canada » British Columbia » Kelowna

Nice little drop off the Bullet Lift
There are loads of these little cliff drops all over the mountain. It's good because you have to spend a lot of time out there to find most of them.

Well, the season here at Big White is over. For about 5 weeks in the middle there we had hardly any fresh snow fall and we watched as our base slowly shrank and rocks started appearing on runs. But then about halfway through March winter returned and we had a great end to the season. It’s a bit frustrating at the moment as we’re still getting fresh snow fall but we can’t go out riding on it. It’s all a bit sad that the season’s over, but there is a lot happening over the next few weeks, so it’s good to [View Full Entry]

Flashbacks d'une Inde lointaine (Jour ?...)

North America » Canada » Quebec » Montréal

Nous sommes le 7 avril 2005, presque un an et demi après mon retour de l’Inde. Je viens tout juste de terminer de taper mon journal. Ça a pris beaucoup de temps, beaucoup plus que je ne l’aurais cru. Je voulais faire ma conclusion de mon voyage de retour à Montréal…je la fais maintenant. Parce qu’en revenant j’ai tellement expliqué mille fois mon voyage et les photos que j’ai prises que je me suis vraiment écœurée, j’ai voulu prendre un gros break de l’Inde, parce que ça avait été éprouvant, autant dans les malheurs que les bonheurs.

Getting Ready

North America » Canada » Saskatchewan

Hey guys More time has passed...less days until I go. I am reading travel books and personal accounts (blogs, stories, etc) LIKE A MAD WOMAN!!! I am trying to aquire as much knowledge as possible. THe majority of tips I found this past week had to do with packing. Seal stuff in plastic jars, im thinking like rinsed out peanut butter jars, and to double bag shampoo and toothpaste bottles. What no one ever tells you is the stuff you need to do if you are travelling with asthma... I couldnt find it anywhere, so for any asthmatics, Im making a [View Full Entry]

Last Day in Canada

North America » Canada » British Columbia

My pack
Not too full at the moment

Well the day has finally come. My flight leaves in about 15 hours. I think I'm done packing, or at least as close as I'm ever going to get. So now I'm just in that super eager anticipation mode. I don't really have anything at all to do today, so that's kind of nice. I'll be going out for dinner tonight with Coral and Emily and whoever, and then I've got to be at the airport around 11:30 PM. This turned out to be a really short entry, I don't have to much to say. That will most definitly change with [View Full Entry]

Whistler ain't all its cracked up to be.

North America » Canada » British Columbia » Whistler

I'm posting this as we finish our family holiday in Whistler. If your kids like skiing in 10 days of constant snow (up the mountain) or rain (at the lower levels) and you enjoy skiing in near zero visibility (either caused by blizzard conditions or, more likely by fog) then Whistler is for you. OK we had great snow, 60 to 80 cms must have fallen in the 10 days we have been here but what's the use of it when you can't see the terrain. We got about 4 hours of hazy sun in the whole ten days, visibility was [View Full Entry]
