I live in wine country just like Tuscany here, pretty mild really.
Snow, not more or less than the State get's

Canada is up in the Northern part of Texas !

I recall my parents taking me as a child and only was there once as an adult.

Now I just watch the Inernational live stream webcam of the traffic traveling to and from both borders.

It is not, it is actually Eastern Alaska..

Or Origon

Does Canada have states? I thought they were provinces and territiories? Ottawa is that the capitol? Is there something like 32/33 million people living in Canada?

Aren't the major sports hockey and lacrosse? What is lacrosse exactly? Have no clue where diamonds were found.

Oregon

Wow people think we play with ice bears in the back yard lol.

Would you believe I live close to the only dessert in Canada?

Yippee! It was a trick from me ha ha.
You are right we have provinces.
Yes Ottawa is the capital most think it is Toronto.
Today we have 33 million people not much eh?
When you buy Canadian diamonds you can tell as it has an ice bear ingraved

I know that the most beautiful and wonderful girl lives in Canada. I don't know a lot about the country, but I do know that much.

I lived in Alaska most of my life and I still get asked if we live in igloos and ride moose to work. So I know the feeling.

I was married to a Canadian for 38 years, so I know quite a bit about it; plus I still have inlaws that I am friends with in Ottawa.

Good for you Ambrose and you really should check out Canada your closest neighbour.
Not knowing about Canada is lacking from your education.

You still go to visit them John? Ottawa is a beautiful city
My late husband worked at Carlton university for 3 1/2 years.
Ottawa is a beautiful city.
It took us 6 days to drive to Ottawa from Vancouver.
Canada is biggggg!

In Ontario close to the Niagra falls the weather is mild too.
It is called the banana belt

very cheeky, B! you know i had to respond...lol

Come and see us again not that you are an adult.
People have surprisingly wrong idea's about Canada.
Most people don't live far from the US border

You mean desert Jen. Actually in Northwestern Saskatchewan there are the Athabasca Sands, which I believe is an official desert. In this area of the Yukon, we are a semi-arid climate, which mimics desert in many ways and we do have deserts dispersed throughout the area. There is an area just north called Beringia, which was a large area of land that was spared ice coverage during the ice age and was a tropical like environment, home to the mammoth, giant beaver, sabre tooth tiger, miniature horse etc. Very interesting and remarkable actually!
Snow? We don't have snow here yet...????
In grade 5, we had to learn all of the provinces/territories, their capitals etc. As well, we learned extensively about the states, their capitals, state flowers/trees/birds etc. I find it interesting that other countries know very little about Canada...
Diamonds - there is diamond mining just starting up in North eastern Saskatchewan, very close to where I used to live...but Canada has some very rich mining all ready in place, including the diamonds, gold, potash, uranium, oil, natural gas, cooper, iron etc...
We are rich not only in history and ethnicity, but in farming, technology, forestry, medical research, humanitarianism, etc. My family chose to immigrate here at the turn of the 20th century, from Prussia (via North Dakota for a while) and Scotland. I am only the second generation Canadian born in my family...I am very proud to be Canadian.

I absolutely Adore Canada and is the only country out of the many I have visited that Ive said I would move there in a minute if I could lol

I Loved the country the people and the lifestyle

Not sure I could answer All the questions though lol
