By candian culture you mean alan thicke, right?
I live less than six hours from canada and yet have only ever been there once for about a half hour. I don't really know anything about what's going on in canada. I also have no idea what's going on in wisconsin(a 45 minute drive from my house), SoDak, NoDak, or ohiowa. I'm not in a position where in-depth knowledge of any of these places is of any importance, and until that changes i don't think i have a reason to take much notice.
