Expert  620   Guelph, Ontario |  Subject: Canadian SouvenirI am going to Israel next week on a group/organized trip. As part of our experience, a couple of people from the army and going to spend time with us talking about their lives. It is suggested that we bring a little token, to say thanks, in the form of some kind of Canadian souvenir. Any suggestions?? |

So delicious and individually wrapped. Perfect for sharing!! For myself, I brought a lot of Coffee Crisp. Good stuff!!!! Mmmm.. Coffee Crisp. |

| Master 2287 Calgary, Alberta | Subject: RE: Canadian Souvenir Canadian Army? Tims coffee is a good suggestion as they might be missing it and quite often overseas the coffee is not so great. Israely Army? Book about Canada. Maple Candy? |

| Elite 2421 | Subject: RE: Canadian Souvenir What every good soilder in their situation would want... porn. I kiiiiiiiid, I kiiiiiiiiiiiiid. Kinda. Beer is good, but not easy to carry. If you really want to get to the heart of the matter (and there's not too many of them) you could always ask. What they're missing may seem very unusual to you. bts |

| Expert 620 Guelph, Ontario | Subject: RE: Canadian Souvenir thanks for all the great ideas.. some might work, but I am going to be "backpacking" for about a week before I meet the soldiers (who are from Israel, not Canada) so food/beer might not work out too well. Kinda has to be small and easy to carry around. Maybe playing cards with a typical Canadian scene on the back?? |

| Champion 4902 Ottawa, Ontario | Subject: RE: Canadian Souvenir It depends on how much you want to spend also. You could buy Roots caps or tuques. Maybe even fill them full of poutine .... |
