    Yup! With even more Canadian truck drivers laid off from the oilfield why do we need to import labour. Should just can the whole program

    Ok Ok Ok ....... don't beat up on the Irish guy to much just 'cause he doesn't live over here in Paradise ...... after all, he DID say that Atlantic Canada was nice ........ Newcastle, NB - Irish capital of Canada !!

    and belowspeedlimit is correct actually, COSTCO has 4 packs of OFF on sale right now with truck driver ID. In the 4 pack is:

    One bottle of #### Off
    One bottle of #### Off
    One bottle of #### Off
    and
    One bottle of #### Off

    They're all different - you can fill in the blanks ....... LOL

    Actually, New Brunswick would nicer if they paved it !! If you're going to visit NB by car or truck - bring a big credit card - there's suspension shops beside every Tim Horton's

    It still hasn't. :D

    As of now, I've not been across Canada but I've been all over Ontario.

    I seem to have accomplished exactly that.
     
    CanadianVaquero, Pullin2 and MJ1657 Thank this.

    Good for you.

    As always I highly recommend a stop in Wawa Moter Lodge in Wawa. Truck Parking and amazing food AND a Tim's next door to get one 'for the road' the next morning.

    The only school that really counts is the school of hard knocks thats a school you keep going too for the rest of your natural life and therefore the older you are generally the wiser and more knowledgeable you are.
