BC Black Chamonix in Yellowknife!

Who is driving around Yellowknife in a Deli with BC plates (other than me, of course!)??? You waved to me as I stood and stared on Franklin Ave yesterday, watching you drive by, slack-jawed at the sight.... I have the "silver toaster" parked on Latham Island. Yesterday in Old Town, a lad s...
