Anyone from Canada? Thinking of emigrating there... (page 5)

I'm not sure why some people think of Canada as so "cold". Sure, it's colder than the southern US...and the further north you go the colder it is. But really, many parts of Canada, (my home province, for example), have winters that are equivalent to or even milder and with less snow than those of the northeast and especially midwest US...it's not that much different!

Oh and, if you're a coffee connoisseur, Timmy's is not for you...I know I risk my citizenship for saying so, but it's true. ;) That's not to say I don't drink it occasionally - I do. There's something in it that makes you have to have it! And don't get me started on how exciting it is when it's 'roll up the rim' time! lol

I just wanted to mention that Vancouver Island ( Victoria ) is a great place to live the climate is said to be among the best in Canada as being

temperately comfortable not too cold in the winter and not too not in the summer.

I live in Vancouver myself and have been here since 1966, originally from Winnipeg Manitoba, if and whenever I retire I would like to move to Victoria.

Just as beautiful as Vancouver but a little less frantic and fast paced as big cities can be.

Oh and the home prices are better.

Five free coffees so far! But I didn't win a thing the last time...guess that's how the cookie timbit crumbles sometimes...;)

Agreed! I used to live there ( the Island) and I loved it.

I still gotta laugh at folks who think that Canada is little more than Eskimos Inuit and igloos, snowmobiles and seal hunting, mounties and maple syrup, etc. It's even funnier when visitors think they can drive from Toronto to Vancouver in under a day. I guess it's all little wonder when they can't even find Canada on a world map.
