Lol actually, I don't think so. I googled it ant this is what some dude said:

> For seven years, I lived in Vancouver. and I have traveled here and there in Canada. On the west coast, I do think the cuisine is very similar to California west coast cuisine. Seafood is very much a pillar of the cuisine. Particularly in British Columbia, the fresh, organic, and local movement is very strong.

>The Quebecoise do have a historical cuisine. It is very hearty. This is probably due to the cold winters. There is a considerable amount of game used in this traditional cuisine. It is a cuisine that combines the cooking techniques and sauces of French cooking with the available game and other products indigenous to the area.

>The two dishes though that probably have the most wide spread recognition though are poutine and Montreal Smoked Meat. While I have seen poutine on menus in the US, I have yet to see a US made poutine that truly resemble poutine in Canada. Often here, it is simply fries with gravy without including the key ingredient of cheese curds.

>There is a show on Food Network Canada named "Wild Chef". On a number of the episodes the host (Martin Picard) explores traditional Quebec cuisine. You might be able to find episodes on the net. If not, I am sure there is a section on Food Network Canada's website dedicated to the show. There are also recipes. There might even be video clips.

Ginger powder, I have it for exactly every meal. Whenever I'm out for fast/street food with friends, I always bring a bottle and drizzle that shit all over my food. My friends call me weird, but they can just fuck off.

I actually think I might be addicted to it. Sometimes I just rub it on my hands, cup them over my face and smell them.
I've started to get a bit drowsy from all the sniffing, but it just smells so fucking good.
