Re: Montreal - Where to live?

Mount Royal not the Plateau. We rented a 1 br for $700 in 2006. Corner of Boulevard Graham and Rockland. I went to work with the train from Canora but had the option of the blue line metro in Acadie.

Re: Commonwealth Games

We'll see how the 2012 Olympics are in London. Typical media bashing by the Tabloids in the UK, they gave Canada a right going over for the recent games in Vancouver.

Re: Is it really better in Canada?

If immigrants did not put Canada on a pedestal like we did, then the gap between expectation and reality would easier to accept.

Re: LIVING IN GOLDEN BC

What are your reasons for selecting Golden?
This is really just a stop off town for people travelleing between Alberta and BC. Mainly service economy and not a place i'd ever consider to live.
