I wasn't into astronomy when I spent 6 months in north America, mainly
Canada. However I was impressed one evening while sucking back a few
cold ones in a friends backyard in Waterloo, Quebec. At the amount of
satelites transiting across the sky. Must be very annoying if your into
astrophotography.
Apart from that my favourite northern sky object would have to be the
Veil Nebula seen through a OIII filter, along with it's eastern section the
Eastern Veil Nebula. Followed by the North American Neb, M57, T Lyrae
(cause I like carbon stars). The Christmas Tree cluster (because it looks
like a Christmas Tree) and that other little cluster in the elbow of Orion
that looks like "37" NGC 2169 is it's designation. And to top it off M31
through my 20x80's
