Victoria? More affordable than Vancouver although still a tough housing market. It's beautiful, good food, good beer, the mildest winter in Canada, and probably has the most goons per person out of any city in the world.
poo poo job market though, depending on what you do for a living.

Don’t really want to be one of those D&D weirdos but before Kenney got in I probably would’ve said Calgary is the most sensible place to live in Canada, reasonably large city but no commute time, easy access to public transit. We’re like six months in with Kenney and it’s like having a meth head as Premier

Now I say it’s Montreal.

A lot of albertans, well at least calgarians have this bizarre mindset that you have to have a detached house, the unfortunate times I have to go back and see my crazy family and old acquaintances they can’t believe I live in an apartment with a kid, and how could you rent instead of buying

I’m like, I have no commute anymore from 1+hr one way, we were able to get rid of a car and downgrade the remaining one, I don’t have to shovel snow, or maintain a lawn/house my quality of life in insanely higher. They don’t get it

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

if you live in canada montreal really does seem the place to go. Problem with that is it'll eventually (if it isn't already) fill up with rich trust fund cocksuckers who bitch and moan about how much they hate it a la new york

invest the money you would have spent moving and build a sensory deprivation chamber. Then it won’t matter where you’re living because you’ll spend all your time in the chamber bathing in utter darkness

After university a friend of mine was hired by an oil and gas company and they placed him in Grand Prairie, he said it was awful but the last straw for him was when he was leaving a bar and two drunk guys were arguing, one of the drunk guys hopped on his dually, ran the guy over (not sure if he died), then drunkenly sped away

He went back to school now works in Vancouver in a completely different discipline

The person can drink sake for the following five reasons. First of all, for the national holiday. Moreover, it fills with the nectar. Finally, for reasons. Next, to heal the dryness of the place. After that, to refuse the future

My wife was just finished complaining about it being in the 40s today, and giving me a hard time because I wore a tshirt to play Ultimate in. I laugh because I don't live in a hellhole like Canada, so what should I worry about a little chill?

You're a pussy if you live anywhere in Canada Eh not near the lakes, and complain about ice (comes with the territory). Since this seems to be a *SEASONAL complaint thread for you, maybe you should get a SAD light?
