Aaaah! I actually thought of you on my trip, because the Buffalo Bill Historical Center had a Museum of Western Art, and there was a section devoted to cowboys and mounties in Alberta (and Calgary, even). I guess the area is very alike?
And yeah, the cowboys looked real, all right. Not your poseur cowboys! I liked looking at them, but when they tailgated me in their giant pickups as I drove the narrow mountain passes, I was a lot annoyed with their machismo.
