Thinking about moving to Canada

[Serious Mozzarella]

So I realized, while browsing information about Canada, that I'm pretty un-knowledgable about pretty much everything about Canada, while thinking about moving there from America. So a few questions for Canadians:

-What's the general population like?
-Where are the best areas to live?
-What should I avoid?
-How are colleges/universities different than America?
-How is life, in general, different than America?

You are thinking about moving there with nearly no knowledge of the place? How does this happen?

My girlfriend is a Canadian citizen, and she's been talking about us living there for a long time.

-Aboot 70 people, eh?
-Toronto
-Freezing to death in snow
-America has more
-More syrup and bacon.

Yes, I just pulled all of this out of my ass.

I can give you a good reason to stay out of Canada. It's not America.

Go for it dude. I won't pretend like I know shit about Canada but I've alway wanted to move further North. Vancouver maybe...

You have any idea where at in Canada? Not the pussy French side, correct?

SHE wants to move to Toronto (that's her hometown), but we may have to compromise, considering Toronto is something like one of the worst places to live if you're looking for a job.

1) General population are some of the friendlist people you'll meet. Depending on what part of Canada can also change the setting. For example here in Alberta you have a lot of plains with a small city. Where as in Toronto I would say it is more industrialized.

2)If you like the Western culture Edmonton or Calgary, if you want a Canadain experience while still have industrial landscape I'd vote Hamilton.

3) Remote islands, lack of warm clothes

4)I've tend to notice a more outdoor focused education. However pretty similiar.

5) How is life different. Well simply put you get a new perspective on the world. You have Tim Hortons once a week and you do more outdoor activities.

(Dewey, by the way)

Gotta go further east than this. Although generally speaking, Atlantic Canada is great. Better than Toronto. The weather is better than you think, less snow than you might expect but the winters are longer. The friendliest people you would ever want to meet.

-What's the general population like?

Like any other human population

-Where are the best areas to live?

Where the population is at.

-What should I avoid?

Traffic, I guess.

-How are colleges/universities different than America?
-How is life, in general, different than America?

Canada is still in America.

-What's the general population like?

We only have a population of about 34 million people, despite our huge landmass, our population is very sparse and spread out, most of which live in the bigger cities. The claim about Canadians being some of the friendliest people you will ever meet, is true to an extent, people can be just as crazy and violent as any American. Winnipeg for example was named the crime capital of the Country a few years back, not sure if it still is.

-Where are the best areas to live?

That's entirely up to you. I will tell you thought, no matter where you go, you can't avoid the snow . If you like the urban setting and huge cities, then Ontario and Quebec are your places. If you like lakes and forests, then Manitoba is your place. If you like flat plains then go for Saskatchewan or Alberta, if you prefer a mountain type of landscape then try out B.C..Though I hear it can be expensive over there as far as housing goes.

-What should I avoid?

The French.

-How are colleges/universities different than America?

Couldn't tell you, I would image they are about the same but I'm not entirely sure on that one.

-How is life, in general, different than America?

Better learn to love the snow, that's all I can say.

Fuckin' A

 

[Coco]

Once you're a Canadian, you learn to see that as a positive.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Nah, being honest if I ever WAS to live outside America, Canada would be the one, by a large, large margin

 

[hatehabsforever]

Dear Jesus I can't believe it, I actually agree with Coco for once

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Doesn't Jericho live in Flordia anyway?

 

[ABMorales787]

Shut up, Killjoy.

You asked, I answered. Maybe you shouldn't ask.

You can always move to Arizona where we hate anything non-Republican and eat rattlesnakes & scorpions still.
