Where are the majority of Delicas in Canada ?

Seemingly most Deli owners on this forum are in BC. I'm curious as to how many actual owners are in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, etc.

Alberta here, just outside Edmonton

Da Island Mon. Seriously though, Vancouver Island seems to have the most RHD's per capita in canada.

basically the bc lower mainland and vancouver island have the most, with the density of delicas dropping off the farther east you travel.

Which is why we say the Delica is an invasive species (albeit a wonderful and benign species to all except new car dealers and governments), that first landed in Vancouver and is spreading east and west.

I would venture to say that Squamish has more Delica's per capita than anywhere else, but then I may be bias!

I would say that the most JDM's per capita would be the Cowichan Valley and alot are Delicas. We definitely have the best assortment.

Just curious why Quebec, PEI, Nfld & Labrador, and Nunavut are all lumped under "Other"? Should have USA and rest of the world as separate choices too.

looking at the pole results so far, it looks like they could have stopped at the Ontario border and said "other" for anything else...

I always claim Nanaimo to be the per capita Delica centre in North America, but I could be wrong. Doesn't mean I'll stop claiming that though.

Never let facts get in the way of a good story,
or,
It would be the truth if the facts were different.

Originally started in Vancouver during the first two early years, after quickly spreading with a epi center starting in Parksville area. Agree about Nanaimo as the 'per capita', South Vancouver Island definitely offered more Delica sightings than even the lower Rainland.

Too bad there wasn't an easy way to sift the Forum data, ie member/drivers list, to map the locations of said Canadian Delica.

What about North Vancouver as the Delica epicentre? I regularly see Delicas up and down Lonsdale Avenue...

Hadn't it been for Adam making "Delica"-Claims for Nanaimo, I would have claimed the hotspot to be North Vancouver (also starts with an "N") - where I live there are at least 4 Delica's parked regularly within short walking distance (3-5 Minutes on foot) of my place. And you can indeed not drive or walk on Lonsdale without seeing at least a couple of Deli's cruising up or down or parked....

Right, so you are saying that the letter N is the epicentre for Delicas per capita. Sounds like a statistic from Sesame Street ~ This posting is brought to you by: The Letter "N".

Residing in the letter "N", myself, I would have to say either Parksville or the Lower Rainland (nice one Kevin), leaning to the latter rather than the former.

I think the poll option only allows 9 choices. I guess based on the results thus far would be BC as I would have expected. It's a rare thing to see a Delica around Alberta nowadays.
