When in California a Double Double comes from In-N-Out Burger. When in Alberta, a Double Double comes from Tim Horton's (more about them here). A Double Double is double cream, double sugar and is the de facto way to have coffee here. Also, don't forget to get the 24oz size:

This is because, once you get your coffee in, say, Edmonton, and you are driving to, say, Cold Lake (180 miles) you will probably not see anything for the entire journey. Well, maybe one gas station:

But no Tim Horton's. Oddly, this gas station sold clothing. I guess because it was the only store anywhere for miles.

And, once you get to your destination, still no Tim Horton's and basically nothing other than snow:

So what do people do in Cold Lake? When the lake is frozen like this, the drive their trucks on it:

For real entertainment, they need to drive to Edmonton and go to West Edmonton Mall, the largest mall in North America (10th largest in the world):

This place has its own roller coaster, sea life center (with sea lions) as well as an indoor leisure pool and ice rink (because you can never get enough ice in Edmonton).

Fortunately for Cold Lake residents, there is a Tim Horton's there so you can stock up before you leave. And if you want to go onto Jasper for some snowboarding (as in the above picture) then it's just another 220 miles from West Edmonton Mall, so that's just another Double Double.
