Good to know! Saskatchewan has it's own version of the Twin Cities with Saskatoon-Regina... except one of them is an evil twin that smells bad...

I have to agree with you about BC, but Saskatchewan can be absolutely stunning as well, in a more subtle way.

She's from Fargo, so it can go either way. ND and MN are essentially the 11th and 12th provinces anyway.

Ugh.............



Not to mention, that was probably a major turning point of the season.

I take it you watch Corner Gas

I've seen a few episodes, yes My cousin had a walk-on roll in one of the middle seasons, but then again, I'm pretty sure everyone in Sask has known someone who was somehow affiliated with that mediocre show. But Corner Gas isn't really indicative of my Sask experience. Let's just say that I puke a little bit every time I see a Rider's jersey.

I'd like to think of myself more as a home-grown Expatriate...

PS I have to agree with you about that Jets game. I could feel my blood boil.
