I don't actually think this represents Canada, either. Big difference from Vancouver to Calgary to Ottawa to Montreal to PEI. And I've been fortunate to visit them all. Take care and be well! And Don't Mess With Texas! 😀 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing is we do have some framed Kincades that we really like, so it's all good. But, we haven't partaken of the 'free' champagne (sparkling wine) since then.

When it was made the CRTC (Canadian Radio and Television Commission) was giving the SCTV comedy show grief about "Canadian Content" on their show. The show featured Canadian actors, was written by Canadian writers and filmed in Canada but somehow didn't have enough "Canadian Content" so Bob and Doug were born. We find them funny and you will find a local version of them all across Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like, what do we do, sit around wearing a toque, drink beer, and cook back bacon? What’s really funny is just how cosmopolitan most of Canada is today!

GUT2407 Posted July 27, 2020 #133 Share Posted July 27, 2020 What I really miss is all those who think they have the right to criticise everyone else. I have been verbally attacked because they saw me in a wheelchair one day, walking the next. No idea why they think it is any of their business. I have seen people body shamed for being fat thin, or anything else. Heard people called all sorts of names over what they eat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redtravel Posted July 27, 2020 #136 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I miss having somebody cook my food, make my bed, bring fresh towels, and do my laundry. I most miss just relaxing on deck looking out at the sea. After staying home during the pandemic, I miss life. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct --- " While I do miss having to cancel 3 cruises , I was thinking about what I'm not missing " . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
