    Wake up people...the Americans offered to sell us the Super hornet years ago for less than what it cost to modernize our CF-18's (I believe they offered between 60 -100). WHAT??? we just got them back not to long ago so we could play with the Americans! quebec gets the $$$ again...

    Cheeze curds?
    Crottes de fromage or fromage en grains, in French.
    I prefer the unsalted version myself.

    I was really impressed with the salted version, but didnt try the non salty version.

    Dang, it was sooooo good. Maybe its a good thing that I've never seen it before, I'm sure that much salt is not good for me.

    I suppose I can go to the grocery store and see if they have cheese for poutine. maybe it might match up to the awesome taste of the stuff that I tried in Quebec

    I guess he's not worried about creating a new Reform party by giving this contract. :lol:

    The fact that this is within Canada is good.

    Quebec is known for its aeronautics and is definitely a ''Canadian'' province. :)

    I bought some at a cheese factory in Ontario, wasn't quite as good :)
    but it was good.
