Default No the roads aren't paved there.

And bring lots of bottled water too!






















Don't forget your <b>Ignorant American's Guide to Canada</b> book too!

Default Nope, in Canada it's only 360 days . . .

It's based on the US-Canadian dollar exchange rate

Default Now for an honest answer....

These guys are just perpetuating the Canadian stereotypes we all hold near and dear to our hearts. At this time of year, whatever tires you have on your car are fine. When I head back to Canada at the end of October I am probably going to put the all-seasons on my car just in case. But from mid-May to mid-October you can get away with summer tires.

Is it me, or do Canadian currency jokes never get old?

Default You lie like a cheap rug! there's snow everywhere!!!

18s are 100% fine, just don't purposely go into the potholes and over sewer covers.

You'll be fine. The roads there are in better shape than they are in New York state.
