Give me a dope infused population in search of munchies over an alcohol infused population in search of a fight any day of the week (but especially Friday

And quite a few on this board for whom moving to Canada was not an unmitigated disaster! I also directed her to the "misconceptions" thread to be fair.
I have defended you in the past, so don't start on me now.

I was just pointing out Canada is not all fluffy and happy for everybody
And reading negatives as well as positives would be a good idea
Plus i'm a big girl now and can stick up for myself

We liked a lot of aspects of living in Canada, but realised after a number of years what was important to us was in England.

Re: The good, the bad and the ugly...
From what I've seen btw the quality of journalism over in Canada isn't as high as it is back home (not a huge deal but still) whether that's in print or televised.
When my Canadian g/f returned home after a year in England she pointed out that she finally realised what I'd been going on about re: their television news every time I visited. It's a lot more casual and sometimes focuses a lot on opinion/editorial along with a more 'entertainment' bent to the presentation than what you'll be used to if you're used to lots of BBC News 24 like me
Too bloody true.
