Also? This site wants me to go down through the US, then back up into Canada. Exactly how many hours would have to be tacked onto that for trying to cross the border, twice? If I ever decided to drive all the way back to Calgary, you can bet your sweet butt I'd go through Canada. Would probably take just as long as going through the US + border crossings.

Though every time I read about politics in Alberta, I cry a little. *looks apologetically at caras_galadhon. I don't even want to attempt to discuss politics with my family! They'd probably look at me like I'm a heathen for being as left-leaning as I am.
