With you on this one.

Outside of small parts of British Columbia, Canada, most of the country is very poorly portrayed in FS2004 and FSX.

I am holding off till I see the new Microsoft Flight and then I shall decide on what Payware to purchase if any.

Here's a list for some very nice freeware:
http://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx.html

just go to the Canada list. Wink

Aslo, FTX has some awesome payware like:
PNW  Pacific Nortwest
PFJ   Pacific Fjords
NRM  Northern Rockie Mountains

http://fullterrain.com/

These are some of the best sceneries I've seen. I can attest to PNW since I bought that one. The others are definitely next on my list to buy.
Check-out the videos. Shocked

I almost forgot these two from Flight 1: Embarrassed
Ultimate Terrain X Canada
http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=utxcan

Ground Environment X North America (USA/Canada)
http://gex.flight1.net/Gex_UsCan/index.htm

These two have definitely enhanced my sim flying.
