That's actually a good idea. If the "Buy Canadian" thing hangs on, it would have a decent chance of succeeding.

Canada is bigger (2nd largest country in the world) and nobody answers by province.

I noticed that often, when traveling, people from the U.S. will say the state they're from rather than the country. I've often wondered why.

They have a machine called a groomer. It can lay the tracks for the classic ski and the skate ski trail. They also have other groomers for the fat bike trails and snow shoe trails.

There are three ski trails within the Sudbury city limits: Laurentian, Naughton, and Kivi Park. All of them have groomed trails for classic skiing, skate skiing, snow shoeing, and fat bike riding. Kivi also has a skating trail
