Forums - General - What do you think of Canada?

Any Country that gave the world the Band, Neil Young,Joni Mitchell are all right ,was holidaying at Maria Island, an island off the east coast of Tasmania, staying in a old convict penitentiary when two Canadian back packers turned up and regaled us with some Neil Young songs, they where great ,then they asked us is we had any bowls they could borrow , my friend said to them sure what type of balls basket balls tennis balls  and they looked at him strangely and said no cereal bowls, to us it sounded like they said balls. Australians see Canada has being very similar to them, both large country's with similar populations in comparison to the US with much  in the way of shared heritage and attitude.

Well Canada is my country and thank god we have james cameron (director of 2 biggest moives of all time) but too bad we have to share it with a 16 year old girl called justin bieber. When i was 16 i thought my voice was a little above avearge but than jb came!



very quite peaceful place, i personally didn't find much to do there when i went. Much less patriotic than the US or egypt. Low crime rate, very and i mean very high prices and taxes. Ah man i still remember that a toast bundle cost over 3 dollars, dam thats expensive. Free health care. I personally don't like canada but hten again i might be baised cause i had a canadain teacher who gave me a headache because of how much he says do that and do that your not that your now that, i think he gave me a bad impression about canadains, i haven't gone to toronto, i just lived in missisauga which i found was the most boring place i have ever been too, hopefully when i go to uni next year toronto will change that perspective, i guess because i am very used to the life in kuwait and a little bit in egypt where its noisy. Also a great pluss is grass soccer playing fields which i found was great and free. Very clean country.



 

 

Hmm I think of an escape plan if things get too crazy in the U.S., Cajuns, Gambit, snow, and my transmission that slips sometimes.

Did I say black people are bad? I think your racist.

Wow.... your nuts. Those were unrelated points.

I know we have less black people because companies like Loreal don't send over dark coloured cover up because of the significantly lower dark black population, and the crime rate was an unrelated statistic.

Your the one relating black people and murderers.

I blame the American media!

 

 

(I was out of line though)

We have the same media...same stores, same ads, hell Toronto has a bigger NFL crowd then Buffalo, and we even host their NFL games half the time because of it.

Mississauga? That place is so foreign! You might as well go to India if you're staying there (my family is from India and pretty much every Indian I know agrees).That whole area is incredibly asian; Brampton, Scarborough, Mississauga. I live an hour away from there (Kitchener/Waterloo). It's also a relatively boring place in comparison to Toronto but we have two universities literally <1 km from each other on the same street... so the night life in that area is decent. But I don't party or drink so it's not of much use to me.

KW also incredibly multicultural. A few people earlier were saying that even though Canada is multicultural, it's kinda segregated. I think KW is a great example of where it isn't.

Anyways I hope you enjoy Canada when you come for school! We welcome you

And keep those thoughts coming! I've enjoyed reading each one.

Um Chuckie Cheese? Square One? The freaken poison water Lake Ontario beach? lol, nah it' kind of boring.

Missisauga is a suburban city, Toronto is significantly different, and if you think Missisauga has a large asian population, wow. Go to downtown Toronto, it's lieterally 45% Chinese (thats a statistic from statistics Canada).

elticker, why are you comming to Toronto for school? Is it because our post secondary schools are literlly 10x cheaper? (I pay $5,500 a year for tuition). However, since you international, your still going to pay $20,000 or so, which is still better then the $50,000 US universities cost.

Not really.  Canada is just one of the pretty much interchangeable democracies that are stronger in some areas and weaker then others.

So, i tend to not think that much of it... as of yet.  If global warming, global trade collaspses or resource shortages hit it big though, Canada is a great place to move too.

What does this make Florida? and worse, what are the Florida Keys?

Square One is way too large for me. I don't have the stamina for a mall like that . I also prefer Vaughan Mills Mall. It's almost as large and there are less stairs. haha!


I pay $5500 per term. But that's just my program. I go to Toronto a dozen times a year! And I agree with you on downtown Toronto and I really enjoy how just going from street to street you see different cultures on display. When I said Asian I meant like Asian countries. Not just oriental Asian... but like India, middle eastern countries, Russia, China, Japan, etc.

I don't consider Russians asians. The capital of Russia is in Europe, and most of it's culture comes from the western provinces.

And what Japanese people!? I've seen two people who were distinctly Japanese my entire life. I'm dating a Korean, I've learned to tell them apart.

and no Stamina? You need the exercise then bro. Wait isn't it all escalators in Square One?
