We don't hate people from the center of the universe that much

Western Canada has to be my favorite though, Vancouver BC in particular, nice urban atmosphere, mountains and nature just outside the city, and a KIND environment (better than Amsterdam). I had lots of fun there; even meet a few local gamers. If I buy a second home it's going to be in or around Vancouver, hell maybe I'll just migrate there permanently, I'd be out of this rat race.

(But not while getting a table dance, that might be difficult!)

And there is one big seller out of Winnipeg, who has cleaned out most of the local used book stores. He always beats me to it, and I've seen him walking out with copies of WG4 and WGR1.For some reason, I end up buying from Ottawa/Hull sellers more often than anywhere else. Yet when I'm there, I can only find the one decent game store (on Laurier?). Where are they getting the stuff from?

I checked out a ton of used book stores in Ottawa this fall, and the only trace of vintage D&D was a 6th printing DMG (bleah!). Quite a few shops had d20 stuff.
