Quite right, the bread here is generally made from sugar, milk and preservatives. And please don't be fooled by the label that says something is 'cheese', because it generally isn't. I'm yet to find an equivalent product to liken it to.

Yeah, ive not found anything like dairylea triangles either

I am blessed to live in a cheese producing haven and can pick up a very nice 2 year old cheddar made down the road for $7 a lb

Point taken though, food labelling here is crap, and there is a lot of stuff hidden in the food that wouldn't fly in the UK.

Ooh, I fancy one of those now!

As for it being better or worse here, I'm sure that some people like the cheese we complain about. Different people want different things out of life. You'll either find them here or you won't. It's something we've changed our minds about more than once, and we likely will again. I also don't think you can know unless you try it for yourself, regardless of how many people you ask.

The only thing I can say about Saskatoon, it's a faster pace of life than Regina, also a lot more busy on the roads! I would class it as a better way of life over here! Don't get me wrong you do get crime round here, but it's nothing compared to England!

There's a lot more to it than that surely? If you just want quieter roads and less crime, move to the Scottish highlands or something?

There are so many factors, such as education, culture/history, sharing a common ground, being able to make good friends, religion, climate, cost of living, people's general attitude toward things, environmental concerns, animal welfare attitudes. It will also depends where someone has moved from, as their basis for comparison will be very different. There will be differences for everyone, and I don't think a sweeping statement about 2 things, one of which could be seen as fairly minor, can really be used as a basis for that kind of comparison.

But compared to the rest of Canada arent Regina & Saskatoon both in the top 5 for crime in Canadian cities.
HIGHEST CRIME RATES
(Percentage above the national crime score)
Prince George, B.C. (114%)
Victoria (75%)
Saskatoon (72%)
Red Deer, Alta. (71%)
Regina (67%)

Thanks for all your help guys and I think I'm going to need to bring a container full of cheese if I land

Err there is a $20 limit on dairy products including cheese that is being imported

•2 dozen eggs;
•20 kilograms of dairy products not exceeding $20 in value (e.g. cheese and butter);

Which bit of England

I am from Manchester, so the crime rate in the whole of Canada is less!

Probably true, but its a lot easier to move a hundred miles up the M6 than 3000 miles across the atlantic. The main difficulty in either case if finding a job to support you, and you have a lot less paperwork doing it in the UK.

She could always move 30 miles down the East Lancs Rd to Liverpool where there is hardly any crime

Only cos theres nothing left worth nicking...

I grew up in a posh bit of the wirral, there wasnt much crime, probably due to the private security patrols
