Gateway to the north!

by Jefie - last update: Dec 20, 2004

That's me, proudly wearing the Albertan tartan
Like many Quebecois, I’ve always wanted to experience life in the Prairies and a few years ago, I was lucky enough to get a job working at the Visitor Services of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in Edmonton and did my best to discover both the city and the province. I hope you find a few useful tips on this page!

Pros:"Lots of festivals & friendly people"
Cons:"Met quite a few weirdos on Whyte Ave"
In A Nutshell:"Totally worth the trip up North!"

 Nice page and tips on Edmonton. We have very good friends who live here, and hope to visit them some day. The architecture is awesome. I have heard much about that huge mall.

 I almost reached Edmonton on one trip north, but distances really are great up there! Nice description of the city and surrounds in your tips.

 I'm just glad you didn't mention anything about the Oilers. They smacked my beloved Boston Bruins around a couple of times in the Stanley Cup Finals. Wayne Gretzky and Paul Coffey were unstoppable back then.
