If you can't find Canada patches, you probably shouldn't leave your house unsupervized, nevermind travel abroad :D

You can get them at MEC. But really I would avoid putting the patches on the bag thing.
a) There's quite a few Americans who actually put the patch on while travelling, so people are catching on. They might just assume your an American pretending to be a Canadian.
b) It's a good way of picking out first time travellers overseas.

I've never, ever had problems travelling without the Canadian flag on my bags, suprisingly alot of people are able to pick us out based on the accent.

thought I've seen some near the camping section. They're usually in those small see through plastic bags and stapled shut from top.

Hmm, could have been Walmart.

I know I've seen them and they sell them in pairs.

If you're afraid of others thinking you're American and using a Canadian flag to hide your identity, then you should put on an American flag so they'll think you're not American..

NOT! hahaha

:rofl: You'll be :guns:

I think a good way is by wearing a Mec bag . When I went to England a few years ago , alot of people knew I was canadian because of the bag :thumbsup:
