Re: Calgary vs Toronto...

Dad born here. Got my passport (Dad was smart to set that up when I was a kid). Have been here living with a cousin of mine for the past 3 years. Might stay. Don't know. :confused: Working for Bank.

Re: Possitive reinforcment drive? Canada EH?

Lol! I live in Toronto, but no I've never driven in it. As a pedestrian I've had no trouble. The left side/right side issue was a problem for a bit, but I sorted that out soon enough. Although...

Re: Calgary vs Toronto...

Alberta, Manitoba and BC. BC was my favourite. Although I am not a hiking, mountain climbing kind of person, the people were fab and the scenery was breathtaking.

Re: Calgary vs Toronto...

My mates here are all from Toronto and area and are mad on the 'oot and aboot' and the 'eh?'. Although when I was in the east, yes they also were heavy on the 'oot and aboot' and the 'eh?'. Also,...

Re: Calgary vs Toronto...

One thing I learnt here in Toronto: Licence Plates. With a 'C'. The US spells it with a 'S'. Yeah that's right! :p

Culturally, Canada tends to look south rather than east or west. Ontario has...

Re: Calgary vs Toronto...

Oh I know. It's all a matter of degrees. Ironic though that Ontario (and especially Toronto) is considered among Canadians as be the most "Americanised" and yet all the stereotypes of Canadians...

Re: Canadian Idiosyncrasies.

Toilet is considered rude here. They never ask for the "toilet" (unless they're just with a bunch of close mates); it's always 'restroom', 'bathroom', or the very Canadian 'washroom'. My friend told...

Re: Canada Vs. US (Retail Battle)

Well Unless you're going to load up on PCs and Lap Tops and Microwaves, you're pretty much good to go. Other than mega-priced items like that, you have nothing to worry about. This ain't the Eastern...

Re: Possitive reinforcment drive? Canada EH?

Well, depending how many pounds you're bringing over you'll be living large for a while. It's when you start getting paid in Canadian dollars when your money will start to dwindle!

From May-Oct...

Re: Canadian Idiosyncrasies.

In Canada "how's it going?" is more common (although it's also used in the States). "How are you doing" is more American (although it's also used in the States). Answering with "good" is common on...

Re: Possitive reinforcment drive? Canada EH?

Huh?????? You haven't lived here long enough! LOL!
Two words: FREE TRADE.

Re: pros and cons of moving to Canada.

Con:

Winter. Winter (hard core, cold, WINTER) is about 4 months long. Then you get 2 months of just mildly cold.

Pro:

Summer....
