Lobster prices have actually been on the low side lately & lobster fisherman have been suffering. I did my best to help them out when I was in the Maritimes last summer - eating lobster rolls, lobster salad, whole lobster & prices were always reasonable. Love the photos & the story.

We Canadians take our BIG things very seriously. (Why not, right? We definitely have the space!) On a road trip of epic proportions from Ottawa to Calgary we saw a number of BIG things including a Canada Goose and a teepee.
