    As I said before, Alberta may be a good place but it's still expansive. As for the unstable weather, it's totally true, yesterday it was like -15 or -20 celcius and today it's like 5 celsius. Snow is melting and everyone wears light spring coats or t-shirt.

    Mini skirts soon...

    Hum... mini-skirts...

    Yup, Canada is the best place to live in the world! It's a free country, good prime minister, good rights and allies with the world.

    Because if the canadian dollar is weaker I can get more of it because I get paid in US currency. It's outrageous how low the american these days. 1 USD is 1.16CAD .. Like someone mentioned in the rep, I do too miss the 1.5 exchange rate, that would make a HUGE impact.

    We could solve that by kicking Alberta out of the country. ;)

    For a long time, people from Quebec wanted to get out of the Canada but we're not rich enough to do that (mainly because of a bad management from the government). The Alberta will probably be the first province to do it.

    They don't pay provincial taxes, just federal, and they have a better economy in general.

    Are you talking about the war of 1812 which was the US against UK and Canada just kind of tagged along?

    Well we can have a do-over if you want. Rematch!!! :D

    Then all of you Canadians would be speaking American ;)

    Well, taxes are high in 90% of the world, but isn;t that what accountants are for? There are loads of ways to get your taxes lowered and a good accountant can do that.

    Don't know what socialized medicine means, but doesn't the government pay for all the health care? Aren;t medicines included in that?

    Socialized medicine is the devil. You are getting a big life change there. You'll be losing money faster than you can count lol.

    No, they rape us for medication almost as bad as in the states but a bit less I must admit. Basiclly anything like doctor visits and blood-work and some surgeries are free but there are always twists with many things
