I would like to get a feel out there how many members on TY are from Canada.Who are you and where are you from and what do you do for a living?
I myself am from a small farming community just south of Winnipeg.Grew up here and remain here. I basically am my own boss,I contract out myself to do installations of various items..doors,windows,decks,cabinets,hardwood flooring,laminate flooring,some ceramic work,plumbing,some electrical,drywall and painting, and currently doing installations of counter-tops for a Company based out of Winnipeg but does it's business all the way into Alberta.You can call me a cabinet/carpenter type of a guy.Love woodworking and creating things .Actually just finished installing laminate flooring in my home during the xmas break and am proud of the job I did.
What about you other Canadian guys or gals out there.What is your story?
Thanks..........................................................................................Doug
 

I live up in Sudbury, Ontario, which is about 250 miles north of Toronto. I am a miner, and work 4000' below the surface.

I live in London, Ontario. Just picked up an SRX 700 after not riding for about twenty years and itching to take her out, but, alas, no friggin' snow! I'm a project manager for a medium sized building restoration company, not fire and flood, just structural problems. For my maiden voyage I think I'll just take a little jaunt out to Stratford, stay the night, and head back the next day. I don't want to venture too far until I get to know the sled better.. Steve.
 
im from the north shore of montreal, quebec.. i have a 2000 srx mountain 700..i have my winters off and in the summer im a fishing guide up in northern quebec
 
I live in Hamilton(the Hammer), Ontario. I am about 1 hour west of Toronto. I work in the dental field. I switched to Yamaha sleds about 2 years ago and will never ride another brand again. I used to ride Polaris but finally saw the light(blue) and switched to Yami! I've got a Viper (136) and a Warrior. I love riding them both but for different types of riding. Cheers to fellow Canadian TY'ers!!!
 
I'm out near Bird's Hill Park just outside of Winnipeg. Just bought my Viper in October, and I've already got over 500 miles on her this year. She only had 882 miles on it when I bought. Also have an 02 Viper with 2500 miles for sale. I was a Cat guy before the Viper, I love the Yammie reliability! I'm in sales, I work from home.
