I think he has a romantic notion of small town Canada, the Trans Canada highway, ... I am not sure the attraction. It is a big thing for him. A couple years ago the plan was I would meet them in eastern Canada and drive out together. I had to back away from that thought, not for fear of the drive just personal change in my life made it difficult.

Patrik also wants to go to Edmonton during his week and a half in Calgary, so clearly he is insane!!!
Edmonton is the largest, least romantic small town in Canada.
