Wow - 3 others (so far) who have lived in the same area in which I grew up, and who are also on this forum. Now, I wonder what the odds are of that happening?

Yep, small world ehh. I still go to Montreal once every week .... telecommute for work.

I went to Allancroft Elementary and Beaconsfield Elementary when I lived in Quebec.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Did you go to St. Angela's Academy in Prelate, SK? I had a friend in high school go there for 1 year. Apparently it closed down last year :( All of the Sister's were so nice. I think my dad's brothers wife and members of her family in Swift Current also attended.
