    My film "Maple Leaf National Parks” transports you to five of Canada’s most famous Rocky Mountain National Parks in the Banff-Lake Louise Area. It features splendid waterfalls, glaciers, lakes, mountains, and other amazing scenery, plus wildlife. The film’s National Park headliners are Banff, Jasper, Kootenay, Yoho, and MountRevelstoke. Also learn how Canadians distinguish themselves from Americans.

    “Maple Leaf National Parks” can be seen on the web with a high speed internet connection.

    This is a free, non-commercial, streaming video on the Windows Media Player. No ads and no strings attached. I sell absolutely nothing.

    My video site is:

    With any modem you can view the Canadian National Parks still pictures gallery at:

    There are 40 of my other free, amateur travel videos on-line including trips to China, Russia, Antarctica, Italy, the UK, Japan, Australia, Bali, Africa, Greece, and Turkey; see lions, whales, elephants, or penguins.

    The planet is yours, including my Home Page giant galaxy of still pictures at:

    I would think that any judgment depends upon first watching “Maple Leaf National Parks”. If it has merit, such as helping people plan their own Canadian trip, your criticism would not be valid.

    "Spam" is generally defined as a commercial post aimed at selling a product. Same for your term: "Spamy". I never sell anything and am not "spamy".

    I see nothing wrong with having a hobby that makes world travel videos + stills available for free to anyone who wishes to watch them.

    Some friends and I traveled across Canada in 1970 and we stopped in Banff and got into a huge heated swimming pool there. Quite pleasant. We had traveled up the California coast camping and just before we got to Banff, I needed to take some kind of a shower or bath---camping for a week or two made for stinky days. I had the urge to take a bath in a stream below the road and plunged in. Holy shit it was cold!! As soon as we pulled away from my bathing spot and turned a corner--I could see why. There was what looked like a glacier draining water into the creek where I had bathed! Loved Canada and the Canadians we met along the way.

    well, all of your posts are promoting your work. im assuming you monetize something, collect email addresses, or something.

    i suggest you contribute to discussions without promoting your site traffic.

    I think the differences in Canadian and American culture are already fairly well-known.

    drumminmama,

    Above you said:

    "well, all of your posts are promoting your work. im assuming you monetize something, collect email addresses, or something."

    Your assumptions are wrong, since I monetize nothing and don't collect email addresses. The travel videos and stills are merely my non-commercial hobby, as a 100% amateur. This is stated in every post, and I am not a liar.

    The suggestion that I contribute more to existing discussions is reasonable. I will make that effort.

    Dave
