Electrical hookups in Canada
Probably a silly question, but are the plugs the same in Canada as US, or do we need an adapter as we did in England?

Read carefully what I wrote. I never said that there was 240 volts on the outlets. I did say that the tab is broken and one leg of 240 is connected to each half of the outlet. Each outlet has 120 VAC, but if you read from the hot side of each half, there is 240.
Whether this is a standard wiring practice or just in some campgrounds I do not know. I encountered it in 1995, and as a curiosity, started measuring across the outlets.
Yes, I have traveled/camped in every Canadian Province. I mentioned it only as information and sharing something that I encountered in some Canadian Campgrounds.
