Please don't take this the wrong way for people that live in Australia, but it seemed odd to see a commercial to visit a place that is on the other side of the world. I seen commercials to visit Las Vegas or California and they don't seem to phase me at all, but when I saw the Australian commercial it kind of through me off. I was wondering if anyone saw any visit Canada commercials outside of North America? Link to comment

I can't say that I've seen one specifically for Canada lately, but I'm sure I have in the past at some time or another Link to comment

But that's not too surprising, because of our close proximity to Canada. Maybe I just remember that commercial because my brother has been to Banff, and he loved it. Link to comment
