how many canadian provinces have you set foot in?

[sweetheart]

4 for me, BC, ontario, the one where winnipeg is (manitoba?) and the one where montreal is...

How many are there total? Do territories count as provinces?

[Maple]

1. All but 2 provinces

and 2 territories.....PEI and Newfoundland...the Yukon and Nunuvut.

I've been everywhere else.

But then I'm Canadian. :D

[Nay]

2. Three.

BC, Quebec, and where Regina is (right north of Montana).

[jeter]

4. BC, Ontario and Quebec

trois.

[Cush]

3. 0

[Lizz612]

Yeah Winnipeg is in Manitoba, I was there for the Folk Festival

in 2001. (lookin at my mug right now!) It was so much fun and the Canadians were so organized and polite!

[Darth_Kitten]

7. We're great at throwing festivals here....

:hi: :hippie: :toast: :party: Folk Festival, eh? :) ;)

[sweetheart]

10. winnipeg festivals

I went to a big event at the convention center, the canadian treasury management forum... or somethin like that. I remember thinking of that city as "winter peg" as it was really cold with the wind.. so walking through the tunnels to get across town. Nothing like visiting a place like winnipeg to stand about with half the management accountants in canada. :-)

I ate at a pub called "elephant and castle" which is named after a place in south london where i had been a few days earlier... it really made me laugh how someone went to all that work to fancy a pub after a rather drab london intersection...

winnipeg is cool... canada and candians are cool. I'd like to see calgary, yellow knife and regina. Alberta, northwest territory and saskachuan if memory serves...

[Darth_Kitten]

24. Elephant and Castle isn't more than 3 blocks from.....

where I live. :)

[ithacan]

5. New Brunswick,

Québec, Ontario

[Darth_Kitten]

6. 5

No, territories don't count as provinces.

B.C, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland/Labrador (as I believe it's called now)

I've been in B.C., Sask, Manitoba(live here), Ontario, and Newfoundland. (never Newfinland but NEW FOUND LAND) ;) :thumbsup:

Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon.

[CanuckAmok]

8. 8

Ontario
Quebec
Newfoundland
Manitoba
Saskatchewan
Alberta
BC (home!)
Nunavut (but it was still "Northwest Territories" at the time)

I'd like to see the Yukon...maybe via a cruise up the Inside Passage.

[Droopy]

9. Let's see

Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, Saskachewan, Manitoba and Brtish Columbia- 6. I used to be an over-the-road trucker based in Ohio. My travels took me through the lower 48 and a big chunk of Canada. I enjoyed my journeys into Canada. The only thing I didn't like was dealing with the customs agents. Some were ok, but others could be real pricks and you just never know who you're going to get.

[FarLeftRage]

11. Oh Canada!

I've been to Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, B.C. and The Yukon. Loved spending time there...

[AlinPA]

12. B.C., Ont., Quebec, NB, PEI, NS. All beautiful, and I love

Cape Breton, NS. Can't wait to see it again. I love Canada and Canadians.

[youngred]

13. 5

BC, Yukon Territory, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia.

I love Canada :-)

[proud patriot]

14. ZERO n/t

[Jonte_1979]

15. Just Ontario

I'd love to go there again some time.

[sweetheart]

18. wawa and moose jaw

wawa is north lake superior... and on asking in a local cafe how cold the winters got, the guy says minus 40 is normal... is said celcius or farenheit... and they give me the dumb-foreigner look... same thing... dumbass... :-)

Moose jaw captured my romantic spirit. Its probably like 2 houses in a forest, but the name sounds so damn funny.

Geesh that place is sooooooooooo big, it'd take years to see canada properly... maybe some day.

[CanuckAmok]

21. "Moose Factory" is even funnier.

But I've never been there.

"Kamloops" sounds funny, too. It's nice there.

[Art_from_Ark]

49. "Kamloops" sounds like a breakfast cereal

And right up there with "Moose Factory" is "Salmon Arm". Is there, by chance, a town in Canada called "Pig Wing"?

[populistmom]

16. one

I went to Ontario once, just over the Niagra Falls border. That's my only "experience" abroad.

[Amaya]

17. one fer me

B.C. :hi:

[ironflange]

19. six

BC
Alberta (live here)
Sask
Manitoba
Ontario
Quebec

plus the Yukon

never been to the Maritimes

[MaineDem]

20. Four

Quebec (many times), Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia.

Canada is closer to me than any American city.

[DFLforever]

22. Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Quebec.

I love Canada...I can see myself living there if the 2004 election turns out badly.

[maddezmom]

23. 2 for me

Ontario and Quebec

[Cleita]

25. Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

I went with a friend, who was visiting her family. One of these days I do intend on visiting other provinces, especially the ones with trees.

[Shakeydave]

26. One.

Alberta only, but what a great time!

[HEyHEY]

27. All but newfoundland

I'll get there someday

[SmileyBoy]

28. Well, let's see... I used to have a summer cabin in Manitoba...

So, I have been to:

Manitoba (my former summer home)
Ontario (also been there many times)
Quebec (for only three hours in Gatineau)
Saskatchewan (four times on two trips)
Alberta (same as Saskatchewan)
British Columbia (twice via Washington)

The major cities I've at the very least been to and the number of times are:

Gatineau (1)
Hull (1)
Ottawa (1)
Toronto (2)
London (2)
Hamilton (2)
Sudbury (4)
Thunder Bay (at least a dozen)
Winnipeg (countless)
Regina (3)
Saskatoon (3)
Edmonton (2)
Calgary (2)
Kelowna (2)
Vancouver (2)
Victoria (2)

I've been all over the vast Canadian wilderness...:-)

[sweetheart]

39. you are fortunate

the one american state i've never been to is the one you live in... and it is no wonder you've travelled all over canada... north dakota... cool... really. :-)

Have you canoed up in to the north candian water ways? I noticed that driving north, one sort of runs out of driving zones, and foot and canoe is better.

Do you have one of those giant full-body mosquito condom's. I saw a family vacationing in northwest ontario by a lake in a cloud of mosquitos... all wearing these giant condom-like tents like a giant toilet paper tube of mosquito netting attached to a hat... so as to not be eaten alive by ontario's state bird. ;-)

have you seen a polar bear?

[SmileyBoy]

43. They sell those mosquito condoms like hot-cakes up in Kenora.

I used to have one.

I never have been to Churchill or the tundra, so I haven't seen a polar bear.

Yes, I have canoed on the English and Winnipeg River systems north of Kenora and Sioux Lookout. The absolute BEST canoeing is up there. There ate NO roads north of Sioux Lookout, where most of the canoeing industry makes its big business in the summer.

You're not missing anything in North Dakota. If you ever come over here, there's only two worthwhile things to see: Fargo and the Lewis And Clark Trail. Everything else is just sticks and bumfuck.

[Interrobang]

29. 9, though it's easier for me to say which ones I *haven't* been to!

I haven't been to:

PEI
Newfoundland/Labrador (re the poster who said say "New found land" and not "Newfinland," no way! Even the famous CBC "...half an hour later in Newfoundland" says it the latter way...the accent is on the NEW part, not the FOUND part!)
Nunavut
Yukon

...so that would make nine, comprising

Nova Scotia
New Brunswick
Quebec
Ontario (home)
Manitoba
Saskatchewan
Alberta (old home)
BC
and the old NWT (Yellowknife), although I'm not sure where that wound up on the re-drawn map yet; it's not every day that one's country suddenly changes its (internal) boundaries!

[GOPisEvil]

30. Just Ontario. Niagara Falls to be exact.

I need to go to more...I really should.

[CanuckAmok]

46. Niagara Falls...

Please...PLEASE...don't think Clifton Hill is typical of Canada.

Seven monster-themed wax museums in the whole country, and they're all on the same darned street!

[GOPisEvil]

54. LOL - it was the '70s...

I was young, and don't remember much beyond the falls and Fort Niagara.

I need to go back as an adult. :-)

[Zomby Woof]

31. 1

British Columbia.

Been to Vancouver, Sidney, and the capital, Victoria, which is by far my favorite of the three.

[GAspnes]

32. 4, same ones you've hit

I *love* Canada. But then, I'm from Minnesota. We even share some pronounciations.

[greatauntoftriplets]

33. Ontario and Quebec.

I also have French Canadian family roots.

[amazona]

34. don't know but several...

I traveled through the east by car to Nova Scotia and passed by the seaway they have -- seems like there must have been at least two or three provinces along the way.

Several of the western provinces.

Yukon Territory. BTW, why are some provinces and some territories?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

35. Five provinces

Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and B.C.

My father's hometown is three miles from the Canadian border in northern Minnesota. Winnepeg was much closer than Minneapolis for them, so they went there for their big city fix.

The border crossing had just a little frame house on each side of the border.

[EV1Ltimm]

36. 2!

Alberta and sask... saskatch... that one next to it.

Everyone was way polite, the fishing is awesome and the women had curves. I'm all about canada.

[jobycom]

37. My feet or someone else's? That's macabre, you know. nt

.

[Fight_n_back]

38. Just two

BC, Ontario


Oooh Vancouver, what a city. If you can't have fun in Vancouver then you don't know how to have fun.

[greendog]

40. 6+2

Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, BC + Yukon and NWT.

[Lisa]

41. everywhere but the Yukon and Newfoundland ...

Prior to the creation of Nunavut, that is. I don't know whether the islands in Hudson Bay fall under Nunavut or NWT jurisdiction (that's where I went while working "up north" one summer.

I would love to hike the "Trans-Canada Trail" eventually.


http://www.tctrail.ca/

[TrogL]

42. All the provinces except Newfoundland and Labrador, no territories

I've been to High Level, with is spitting distance from NWT, but never been there.

[camero]

44. 4

Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and BC (which stands for Bring Cash)

[northzax]

45. Canada has provinces?

who knew? :shrug:

[pfitz59]

47. Labrador (Newfoundland), Goose Bay ....

Got drunk om Labatts Blue watching ice floes in the Churchill River.

[NightTrain]

48. Ontario and Quebec

Ontario during a trip to Niagara Falls in 1989; Quebec just two months ago, when I took my maiden voyage to Montreal to visit some people I had berfiended on the Net.

I plan to make a return visit to Montreal some time after the winter ends. Man, what a great city!

[HEyHEY]

50. If you liked Montreal you'll love Quebec City

Awsome town

[MSchreader]

51. Six provinces

Ontario (regularly)
Quebec
New Brunswick
Prince Edward Island
Nova Scotia
British Columbia

Next year I'll add Manitoba and Saskatchewan to the list.
