▲People who come from cities like Toronto or Vancouver don't realize how easy they have it—no one asks for clarification or stifles down a laugh when you say where you're from. People from the towns on this list, however, aren't so fortunate. Click through this gallery to see some of the most hilarious town names Canada could imagine, and maybe start planning a road-trip if you're in the mood to chuckle your way through the country.

▲There are a lot of theories about where this name came from, but, more importantly, there is a Dildo Festival led by none other than Captain Dildo himself. Yeah, an old seaman. Sometimes the world gives you gifts, and this is one of them.

▲Try not to laugh when you say this place—you can't! In reality, 'haha' was an old French word for obstacle, which would have been the nearby Lake Témiscouata, but is now the obstacle of trying to pronounce this town with a straight face.

▲Imagine trying to invite someone here. This tiny rural town has a population of about 200, so it's safe to say they have proved that size doesn't matter.

▲The town's name comes from the main character in a sci-fi book titled 'The Sunless City', but to save yourself the time to explain you could just say you're from a galaxy far, far away.

▲It's hard to be flabbergasted at this town's name because it just rolls off the tongue.

▲The town was named after Lieutenant Governor Amedee E. Forget, who no-one remembers.

▲Who's to say if this beautiful town 20 km from St. John's is conducive to romance?

▲Newfoundland is the cheekiest of all the provinces, and all the evidence you need is to know that Spread Eagle is located near Conception Bay and looks out onto Dildo.

▲"You’re in Urin." Yum.

▲For all those Star Trek fans, this is probably more awesome than weird. The Star Trek movie actually had its world premiere in Vulcan, and the town also hosts an annual galaxy fest that features a 31 ft replica of the Star Ship. A great place to meet like-minded people!

▲No frills, no beating around the bush. The people of Stoner are proud of their green BC lifestyle.

▲If you're wondering about the origin of this town, they probably just came upon it by chance.

▲Another fun place to take people to—because it's famous for being the home of the only recorded Nova Scotia UFO sighting!

▲Wawa comes from the Ojibwe word for wild goose. In case the name wasn't funny enough as it is, the town features a 28 ft statue of a Canada Goose.

▲Maybe not the best place to bring the kids.

▲Probably the best place to bring kids.

▲There's no official financial standard for the people living in this town, but there is also an Upper Economy.

▲Perhaps the French language disguises some of its strangeness, but imagine going to a place called Three Pistols—and then try to not feel like a pirate.

▲If you travel two hours south, you'll hit Nose, and an hour south of that is Mouth, Saskatchewan. Don't Google fact-check that.

▲The island where they shipped all the responsible people. At least they all arrived alive!

▲The unincorporated settlement located 50 km north of a town called Hope is also commonly referred to as "Beyond Hope", but Spuzzum was made famous in the 1980s when the band Six Cylinder released a song with the lyrics: "If you haven't been to Spuzzum, you ain't been anywhere."

▲What do you do when another town steals your name and registers it first? You fight back by creating a name that will always require the explanation of how that one town stole your town's name. And you own your truth.

▲There wasn't enough time to edit it down so they went with the first draft.

▲The town where it's always sweater-weather.

▲One of the largest and most accessible—lakes, that is.

▲This one's just fun to say.

▲The people of this town must have to hide their local pride from the police.

▲Somehow this place must connect to Eyebrow, Saskatchewan. Somehow.

▲It seems anything goes when naming places on the east coast.

▲It was only strange until Feist, indie musician and Nova Scotian, wrote a song called 'Mushaboom'. Now it’s just really cool.
