Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

My ticket by the Quinte Mall was given by a jocular copper. I had a van load of furniture,

"where you going with that?"

"Toronto, Jane and Finch"

"Jane and Finch? Keep going at that speed up and just push it out the back"

Expensive ticket though I've forgotten how much.

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

Its called experience and seeing different things and places in life. Just cus Ive been to Paris, Lyon and Marseille does that mean I shouldnt have gone to Quebec city and MTL as its French culture or just because I can Canoe and Kayak on Lake Ontario does that mean I should not go to Lake Vernon, Killarney Lake or Lake Joe? Repetition of the same thing especially in the same place gets pretty boring after a while.

Not everyone likes to live in their little village/town/city and stay there. Just cus a load of Torontoites never go north of Finch doesnt mean its the way to go, lifes about exploring to me (and I think most immigrants). There are hundreds of beautiful villages, towns, cities, places, spots, hikes, lakes, trails that all can be similar but are different in their own right and worth experiencing.

But if you have to ask that question your not the sort of person to understand it in the 1st place.

What is your problem? You post but dont read the replies.

Maybe if hes busy jet setting aroung the world he doesnt have the time or inclination to stop and compare two marginally different places. Why stop and compare Belleville and Cornwall when you could be comparing Toyko and Singapore?

Like you say, we are all different, so live and let live eh.

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

My point is that paddling near Alliston is not much different from paddling near Belleville or, back on topic, driving a snowmobile in southwest Ontario, southern Michigan or central Ontario isn't much of different experience. If you were in Windsor, there'd be no particular need to go to the rest of Ontario, if you wanted paddling and snowmobiling you'd likely go to the UP. Similarly, if you're in Alliston you'd likely go to Killarney or Algonquin rather than Michigan.

Michigan, Ontario, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Quebec offer similar outdoor recreational opportunities and it's hair splitting to favour one over another.

I'm planning on landing in August if my PPR comes through in time:curse: Hopefully the area will be as I remember it.:)

You will have to keep us updated on your move when you get out there...:thumbup:

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

The city itself is liveable, I particularly like our little bit of LaSalle, but as dbd said, what's the difference between here and any other smalltown, ON if you haven't got Detroit - that's the real pull for me (and its location within such easy driving of the cities and places I listed).

Someone posted this link yesterday - Windsor gets a B overall - http://ca.pfinance.yahoo.com/ca_fina...re-to-buy-now/ . We had pick of the bunch, and there's no doubt the value is incredible here, but buying in this region's not a short term commitment.

Will you stop linking to rubbish like this :mad:

Please take no notice Saskatchewan is not a good place to buy property or live STAY AWAY or else :rofl:

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

Saskatchewan sounds great I'll tell everyone I know to go there:rofl::rofl:
and those I don't.:p:p

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

Shhh!

Now back to the topic of Windsor ON :rofl:

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

Any my point was if thats what you think your not the sort of person to explore and appreciate whats different, just cus Killarney, Algonquin et all is nearer to me wont stop me from seeing lots of other places no matter how similar they are. Each to their own.

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

I think you're excessively judgmental and that, by comparison with me, you are likely the less willing to experiment with and appreciate things that are different. For example, how many men have you had sex with? Can you knit? Are you pierced? If you had a pair of donkey testicles to hand what sort of dish would you prepare with them? Would you ride in a VW Beetle convertible? What drugs have you done lifetime and this week? How many children do you have? Have you ever been in jail? What's your favourite opera? Have you jumped from or driven an aeroplane? What types of religious services have you attended? How many languages can you speak?

I tell you sir, it's possible to have lived a boldly experimental life even if one has never snowmobiled outside Dufferin County.

:eek:Wow!!!:eek: all this after someone enquired abt what its like in Windsor:rofl:

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

Are you surprised? Mention Windsor and talk of bohemianism inevitably follows, Windsor is, after all, on the Rive Gauche of the Detroit.

Re: considering moving to Windsor, Ont.
 

Dont think its talk of Windsor that started that, this always happens to threads when certain individuals are involved :)
