Ok, here's the final answer: BOM-BAR-DEE-AY
I'm a french canadian, so I should know!!!
Something else funny about Bombardier's name? Ok... the name "Ski-Doo" was supposed to be "Ski-Dog", but when they registred it, the man at the office was writing poorly, so it was registred "Ski-Doo". Bizarre???

Perfex, How close are you to Valcourt? Now enlighten us on the correct pronounciation of Quebec, as I have heard it pronounced two different ways. Thanks![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] And it is also true that I read that Joseph Armand Bombardier had some help from his brother Leopold when he first invented the first production snowmobile- "Ski-Doo"

If you think Bombardier is hard, try saying Bouvier des Flanders three times fast! When people ask us what it is we tell them it's a really ugly Giant Schnauzer.

I'm in St-Jérôme, about 2 hours north of Valcourt, witch is about 1 hour south of Montréal
Bouvier des Flandres three times fast? Easy:
Bouvier des Flandres, Bouvier des Flandres, Bouvier des Flandres !!!
