It appears that you might have missed a fairly important search engine up north here. Ah, well the server is located in the most southern tip of Ontario. For all the GEO nuts this makes me further south than a third of the USA. Have fun checking out all that the site offers in a Canada Search Forum, Canada Search Weather, and yes the search engine conveniently located in every page header for your searching pleasure.
