Re: Austrlia Vs Canada
I'm glad you've made friends in Canada, but you could have just found a nice place in Canada and a not so nice one in Australia. I think that sometimes there's a bit of luck involved with where you move. I guess I've been really lucky because I've found extremely nice people in both.

Re: Austrlia Vs Canada
My initial research indicate Canada is a Better Place to live in all aspect, except for wheather, One of the main reason for the Australian boom was the chinies economy, which kept things good for OZ. hence the boom, Since Chinies are now in a economic soup, so are all those who were dependent on them. and the recovery of the chinies economy would be very slower. This is why there is a lot of call for cut in migration to australia
Canada is concern they were dependent on the US economy, but unlike the chinies economy the US economy is likely to come out of the mess sooner, This is why there are no plans for cut in migration.
Further if you are a canadian and not satisfies things over there you could move to US without any paperwork under NAFTA. where as in OZ one is stuck.
Further I observe in canada there is a sence of Welcoming for the migrants where as in OZ they want migrant mainly to fill their labour shortage.
this is my opinion I could be wrong, all are welcom to share their opinion.

Re: Austrlia Vs Canada
I enjoyed the winter as well as the summer. though I was in British Columbia which is not as cold as further east, it only got to 17 degrees below freezing the year we were there. The people seemed normal, no bragging about how much better they were than everyone else in the world, so you could just communicate normally. No walking on eggshells.
and here I was "freezing" when it was 14C

'spect so. If I was in a big city there might be good ones more accessible. I live in a small country town, where everyone knows everyone else and if they don't like ya they don't like ya!

Re: Austrlia Vs Canada
I totally disagree that Aussies dont like Poms. I'd say the exact opposite.
Ahh but rereading your posts I've only ever lived in the City, and my very few bad experiences have been mostly in the country.
