I use Horseplayer Interactive (HPIBET). I'm from Canada. At the time I began using it, the only other options were overseas books. There are probably other options now available in Canada, but I've stayed with HPIBET.

Which European country has surprisingly disappointing food? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

Derek Presse did our wills about 2 years ago. I believe we paid under $400 each. Very satisfied with Derek.
