What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Canada? Bacon? Hockey? Playing hockey while eating bacon? What about stunning natural surroundings, vast and verdant landscapes and endless outdoor adventures? For these reasons, and more, Canada is increasingly becoming a favored vacation destination. While timeshares probably aren't the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Canada, they're one of the best ways to fully immerse yourself in the fun-loving, warm and welcoming communities of your favorite region of this northern nation.
A timeshare will allow vacationers to return to their favorite region of Canada year after year. In the summer the Canadian Rockies are one of the country's most beloved hiking destinations, while winter in the region promises world-class skiing and snowboarding. Spring, summer and fall all provide the perfect landscapes and temperatures for some of the best golfing in the world and of course Canada's pristine lakes and miles of coastline are rivaled by few. |

 If you're a decent, hard-working Canadian, you appreciate coming home at night and watching John Candy's zany, low-budget Canadian Bacon. You know, Canadians love this movie as much as they love hockey. In fact, to Canadians it's the god-damned equivalent of It's A Wonderful Life. It's unlikely that you'd ever see a Canadian DVD collection without a copy or two of Canadian Bacon on the shelf.
The underlying idea in this great Canadian movie (that rates on par with The Mouse That Roared and Wag The Dog), is that it is better not to go to war, because a war with Canada wouldn't last long enough. Don't mess with the Canadians is the true message though, throughout Canadian Bacon. Canadians take pride in their unique culture, and it can not be represented any truer than with late great Canadians such as our beloved John Candy. |

An Amayonnaising Love Story
| | | This French-Canadian, identified by his poofy beret and his silly moustache, enjoys a tasty mayonnaise cone. | | QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC (CANADA, at least for now)-- Canada is a fascinating country filled with many diverse cultures. It's a melting pot of international ethnology, bubbling to the rim with unique flavours and tastes. Canada is a true pioneer in diversification and multiculturalism. But despite those worldy accolades, there's nothing that quite explains the French-Canadian desire to eat mayonnaise. Smooth and creamy, mayonnaise is far (and away) the number-one condiment in French-speaking Canada.
Although mayonnaise may only be moderately popular in most parts of Canada (on hamburgers, sandwiches, or potato salad), in Quebec, the thick white topping has evolved beyond being a simple condiment (intended to flavour other food) and advanced into the special realm of food staple.
In French-Canadian cities like Montreal, Quebec City, and Hull, the creamy emulsion is often substituted at dinner-time for mashed potatoes, or enjoyed a la carte as a whipped snack. It’s placed on desserts instead of Dreamwhip or whipped cream. Mixed in with porridge, placed on omelettes or pancakes, mayonnaise apparently makes for a delightful breakfast topping. |
