So I'm considering moving to Canada in the future, after I get my degree in computer science. I feel being a software engineer (as I intend to be) I should be able to find work almost anywhere (with the use of the internet, can really work out of your home on an island if you had internet). Probably not right after I grauate but still haha. Anyway, I just continue to see the USA get dragged down and soon it will be a socialist country after the economy falls (just my opinion, I truthfully feel they're trying to crash the economy to bring in more government power). I'm really just looking for what people think are the positives and negatives of Canada. Such as the health care, I've heard good and bad things about it. Also, I'm big into the outdoors. I'd like to move to BC because it's amazing. Summer would be mountain biking for me, as they get like 16? hours of light a day...which is sick. Might not be able to grow some sativas as well but w/e. Also, winter = hockey and I loveee hockey haha, not as much as soccer, but hockey is still bomb. P.S. - Blues are going to take their first stanely cup this year Anyway, any Canadians wanna hit me up on what it's like in Canada? Maybe you'll change my mind to move to south america if it's too bad haha
The mentality in america is that they're a bunch of pussies with funny accents. I always thought Canada seemed pretty chill, if not a bit cold hahah
Move to Montreal! -crazy party scene -legal age is 18 -there's an outdoor hockey rink at practically ever park in the winter! - 3 for 20 of the dankiest buds!
wow, you are worried about the socialization of america so you are moving to canada...good luck with that.
you apparently don't understand what's truly going on in the united states then, and how corrupt the government is...I admit ignorance to Canadian politics, but I know what's up with the USA.
Well i suggest you enlighten yourself. We are nothing but a carbon copy oc you guys. Any laws you guys make we follow suit. Every channel on the tv is american programming. Sadly bro. We are just another state of yours. Especially with harper at the wheel. If he wasnt white id swear he was Obama himself.
This place has a nice summer, then we experience the other 11 months lol I hope you like -30 weather.
Better bone up on your french. Cuz if you domt speak french. The quebeccers treat you like shit. And yes even in montreal. And stay as far away from ontario as u can. People here are rude, pushy, impatient, and think canadas survival depends on them. Torontos just a fucking wannabe newyork, without the shit to do and transit to get around.
What part of Ontario do you live in? Everyone here is nice except for the hockey players, they are all douche bags.
hahah will do... Firstly, I don't plan to move just because of politics. It's about half politics, half the people around me. But the USA has been corrupt for yearssssss and after finding everything out I just can't stand it. First of all, we have the federal reserve lending $15 trillion to european banks....just inflates the dollar. check out what the CIA has been up to for years...my favorite is MKULTRA where they used LSD and other psychedelics to test on humans for mind control and brainwashing, and the CIA decided to destroy all of the evidence, but some was found. I watched a 1979 documentary on youtube about it, they fucking ruined people's lives...imagine getting a dose of LSD back in the 50's...no one even knew about it. You would definitely think you're going crazy ->>> bad trip...and they did this over and over to people. Unwillfull patients too, breaking the Nuremberg code...right after world war II...which is fucking pathetic. (Sorry if telling history is breaking the rules haha, I've never done LSD so I know nothing on the experience, but just hearing what the people had to say about it that were tested on...wow) http://forum.grasscity.com/politics/809003-us-gov-doesnt-lie-cia-great.html Also, how the USA has been brought into almost every war. Don't know how much of this is true, but I know for sure 9/11 is bullshit and could have been prevented. It was just an excuse to control the middle east, africa is next. Building 7 (of the WTC) was a controlled demolition...which had a CIA office in it hmmmm also a lot of records for cases against big corporations such as Enron (probably slightly off on the Enron thing, but it had something to do with Enron and other big companies, can't really remember what.) Anyway this is interesting, haven't had time to check everything he said. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4P2O8UjQeU&feature=player_embedded]Faking It: How the Media Manipulates the World into War - YouTube[/ame] The whole history of marijuana......and hemp. The USA is the only country in the world (pretty sure) that it's illegal to grow hemp...for fucks sake, number one agricultural crop in the world of all time. Want a good book to read on it I recommend "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" by Jack Herrer. So you know I got a little heated while writing this haha, mostly just pissed off at the government and corruption, had nothing to do with you If there's more stuff I forgot I'll add it so people are informed. If I'm wrong on anything PLEASE let me know, as I hate speaking in ignorance and being ignorant, thanks.
Best to just ignore this guy. Being Bi-lingual is hardly important in Montreal but the farther you go from Montreal the more rude people will be to you. When in Montreal make sure you tell people how much you hate Toronto. That's important. Foolish people will connect with you based on unfounded comments you make about a province/city they have never been to but hate. Toronto is a great city though. Good transit system (for the time being) and if you can't find something to do there then you're probably just an incredibly boring person.
Which is why I made this post, to be enlightened haha. But I feel Canada is less of a police state. Soon we will have drones flying around watching everyone. Next step is the chip in HR3200 which may or may not come into effect. I see it as: if you want your gov paid healthcare, you need a chip in you to keep track of your info. You guys might be right behind us, but we are ahead...which means we get the bullshit laws first lol
I have a buddy that I met via an MMORPG when I was a kid, shared an account with him and fucked kids up on that game...was a bomb game until the company fucked it haha, still talk to him a lot too, actually just talked to him tonight. He doesn't really care for French Canadians. I did meet a group of Canadians on a cruise a couple years back. We played flip cup...5 Americans vs 5 Canadians....the Canadians blew us away haha, 2 were French, they were pretty cool tho
Move to Ontario, Canadians are some of the nicest people I've met. I've gone to Canada every year and they treat me with respect, but it's probably because I'm from Michigan so we can kind of relate. Don't move to a rural area and you'll be fine. The outdoors in Canada no matter where you go is just beautiful. You won't regret it, you do have to pay higher prices for things though and more taxes. So there are good and bad things.
And as soon as its ready for public consumption. We get it too. Google bill C10 if you dont think we are a police state. We have been taught by the "best". On how to opresss and diguise as freedom. C10 is something right out of the department of justice handbook. Only rewritten on her majestys letterhead. Not to far down the road we will be rocking the prison for profit model you guys developed. Mark my words. I love canada dont get me wrong. She has gone to shit tho. More than youll ever know.
