Better fishing, far fewer cottages, and just more remoteness in general. Also, some actual hilly terrain.
There, now shut up about what is and isn't a prairie province, and tell me why NW Ontario sucks instead!
On a positive note, at least NO ONE has tried to claim the "Oasis" (locals will know what I'm talking about), nor the Birds Hill Park "lake" as a positive outdoor feature in Manitoba. There's hope for you folks yet! ![Tongue](images/smilies/tongue.gif)
