There's a store on the Calgary's west side on Highway 1 (the Trans Canada Highway for those of you who might not know) leading into the mountains. The shop is innocently called "Easy Rent-a-Ski", and is for those folks who don't own their own ski's, obviously, to rent some and go skiing either at Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, or farther into the mountains.
If you remove the hyphens, the name of the store become "Easy Rentaski," which is very Polish sounding.
