IIRC Canadian vehicles are considered more severe duty than the US due to something, some difference between Canada, to the north, and the US, which is more to the south. There is some difference. For the life of me I can't figure out what it might be though.

Two words (from a Canadian living in the US):

Poutine
Labatt's

cheese on fries okay I get that. cheese curds? well maybe, covered in gravy just looks wrong.

but everyone likes there fries differently. at least you didn't use the NH version with mayo/ketchup in a cheap french dressing as the dip.

LOL, I'm in Portsmouth and I do like mayo on fries (they do that in Quebec too) and I also like white vinegar on my fries.

But my fave is ketchup and the french fry basically becomes a spoon for my ketchup (did I mention that I like ketchup?). =D

Yes, I agree, the french fry as well as a common hot dog, is just a delivery system for my favorite condiment... ketchup (especially Hunts). It's like a pancake is just a way to enjoy butter and maple syrup.
BTW, Soupie is a twin to the Ranger I ordered but never got built. Wonder if she has a locker?

LOL on the butter! I scoop butter with a saltine and eat several like that - so clogged arteries? Hmm ...

No locker on Soupie - I do wish I had one for winter but I use that as an excuse to put on snow chains, which I oddly love using! =)
