Top tip - if CHC is there, get to the show just before opening time and make a bee-line to their stand. There were 3 reps there and we were attended to straight away. Later that morning the queue was very very long. :scared:

Manitoba and the Maritimes were very well represented. Disappointingly there were no official stands representing Ontario, Alberta or BC, although there were some realtors.

We were glad we went and came home with a load of brochures. We had no specific area of choice to land in Canada at that time and these exhibitions open your eyes to provinces you may not have previously considered.

We are heading for NS, so hopefully it will be well represented again this year.

Thanks,

We will spend a lot of time driving around and taking lots of photos.
