Another poll for Canadian Dopers

In My Humble Opinion
21

  1. Yes – NWT, however, only at the bottom of James Bay (as far south as the NWT goes).

  2. Want to go back.

  3. Paddled out to a rocky NWT island on the way from the mouth of the Harricanaw to the mouth of Moose at the end of an Ontario wilderness canoe trip. Really shallow, warm water. Nice being so far away from people. Pics: Lower James Bay James Bay Photographs

  1. No

  2. Yes, in theory, but they’re far enough down on the priority list of places I’d like to visit that I likely won’t.

I already live in the province that is considered a pimple on the ass of Canada, I really have no desire to go to the territories. I might not see the northern lights as often as I would further up north, but I connect with nature plenty enough around here.

I think you’re mistaken about Saskatchewan, kushiel; it isn’t considered a pimple on the ass of Canada. It isn’t considered by most Canadians outside of it at all. (I was born and raised there - I can say stuff like that. :slight_smile: )

Unless you’re driving from Alberta to Ontario. At which point it is a whole lot of the same stuff repeated ad nauseum.

  1. I spent a summer in the Yukon (Whitehorse and area).

  2. I’d love to see the NWT one day.

  3. Gorgeous. Just gorgeous. If we got too hot while driving somewhere, we’d pull over and have a snowball fight at one of the few areas where snow was still packed. (This was in June/July). I remember the people being VERY friendly which was another plus. I’d move there in a heartbeat if I could. The only drawback was too much light in the summer and we didn’t have shades that could darken the room enough for me to sleep.

  1. No
  2. I would love to, but I don’t foresee any opportunities in the near future.

dalej42 I don’t know of any sites with pictures of Nunavut, but I’ve never looked. If I had a better internet connection, I would upload a bunch of mine. Send me a SASE and I’ll hook you up with some CDs! (Ha!)

Gulo gulo We use aluminum foil to block the sun.

dalej42, here are some pics from my cousin’s front door fairly near the top end of Nunavut:

Those are some pictures, Muffin. The animals don’t seem very wary of humans.
