About the Author

I'm a Canadian who has lived in the United States since 1999. I love the beauty of the Canadian landscape and dream about travelling to EVERY country in the world so I can say, without a doubt, that Canada is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY in the WORLD. Until I can accomplish this feat of huge financial proportions, I'll continue to appease myself by writing about Canada's many, MANY virtues. If you have an uncontrollable need to know more, get the long, boring version of my biography at Real Home Sense. You can also follow me on Twitter as @CanadaConnect and @Cletch.
