Can anyone help me out with this one?
The fly is about 6mm long.
Thanks.

Stratiomyidae..Microchrysa polita (Male) I think, but 6mm seems a bit big...the ones I've photographed have been about half that size...there is a Syrphid that is very similar to a rank amateur like me...Lejogaster metallina.
Don't know what you might have in Canada though.
