Selling a drum kit in Saguenay
Saguenay sits on a genuine fjord in the north of the province, built around aluminium smelting that runs on local hydroelectricity. It is a francophone city almost entirely, it is a long way from anywhere larger, and its winters are among the coldest in the populated part of the country.
The city was amalgamated from separate towns that are a real distance apart, so agree which one. Winter is long and severe here, so a daylight time and a weather fallback are both sensible from November onwards.
Confirm which of the former towns the item is in. They were amalgamated into one city but they are a real distance apart, and in winter that distance is a different proposition again.
Saguenay, in Quebec, has around 145,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Montreal, Quebec City and Laval are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
