As opposed to Norte Americanos.
I cannot speak for other provinces, but living in MT, you learn a few Top secret things from Canadians visiting Costco's below their border, like... Kananaskis country in Alberta is like Banff and Glacier without the people and ALL the scenery include boatloads of grizzly's.
The Albertans actually voted against development in Kananaskis country as a political body. Imagine that if you can. I am thinking the development interests did not have the advantage of Americun Mad Men. Poor creatures that they are. Golf courses and condos are anathema, and legally not allowed in Kananaskis country. I realize the dissonance this might cause among some people in the U.S. severe distress but it is the truth. They prefer wilderness and wildness over development. Ok, not in all cases, and they appear more than willing to rip oil out of sand and shale, but they appear to draw lines in different places than US. Do not be distressed however, they still accept credit cards, however, I must note, are quite confused by our lack of digital protections...
Anyway, these foreign creatures from the north have holidays of their own that do NOT directly correlate with ours. I admit to not completely understanding but am vaguely aware that there is a world outside of our borders. In particular and of interest NOW, NOW NOW! for Americuns is July 4th. Read on oh, shorts and T shirt wearing, loud creatures of the mid latitudes...
Yes, they are foreigners and I hope certain political factions within the United States do not fully realize this fact. That would be a **** long wall and I am afraid the Canadians would willingly build it at this point in time and pay for it. So, take advantage now of the disparities that exist between the two countries other than politeness and rather bizarro world like politics.
Anyway, The Canadians have certain weekends they call Long Weekends. Apparently beer and relaxation are involved in these periods of times. As anyone who has visited a beer store knows (mostly east of Alberta), the Canadians are quite capable of making very tastable malt beverages. Of course since President Carter Americuns have come on strong in this respect to put those hosers in their place. Oh, I apologize for any perception of insult.
NOW, if your are perspicacious, and are trying desperately to find a place to camp during the week of July 4th, 2016 or any other 4th, realize that, the Canadian long weekends for whatever they call a holiday ENDS on July fourth. They all go home to recover and work their 32 hour work weeks and we Americuns can invade their campgrounds if we are quick enough. They are not stupid people and one should never confuse politeness with stupidity although many Americuns tend to do so.
So, for those of you who are close enough to take advantage of the geographical proximity of the great white north, I strongly suggest you explore the Canadian provinces north of you. They are quite vulnerable to an Americun invasion right after long weekends and we can achieve a tactical advantage, although I would suggest you do not pay any attention to the historical nature of any such assumptions. The lessons of the war of 1812 no longer applies in a nuclear age. We do have escalation dominance with the equivalent lack of maturity. One should not attempt to comtemplate such things regularly after certain high gravity malt beverages. As you can see, I am well acquainted with such beverages.
Anyway, opportunity is extant at http://www.albertaparks.ca/ for those in the western part of the continent. Be aware Americuns, it is difficult to figure out what anything costs up there in the great white north, but you will be pleasantly surprised once your credit card company sends you a bill.
Do not be surprised if you cannot find enough of their odd currency in your pockets based upon loud birds from what I can tell, to pay your bill, as they will tell you to take care of it next time you come up (true experience at a Canadian Sub shop). They are truly strange creatures...but then again they think we are somewhat out of the norm. I cannot imagine why and cannot disagree.
