JLP Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 Anyone live(d) in Ottawa/Hull and maybe has some comments they could share? (Starting to look at exit strategies from Japan.) Thanks! also considering other spots in Canada if anyone wants to pitch a particular city! Quote
Habsfan24 Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 I've lived in Ottawa for the last four years while I have been going to school here and think its a great city (if you can look past the fact the Sens play here ) Quote
Dirty Harry Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 What, have you never visited there? It's like being stuck in a loop, crappy little government town. God I cant wait to get back to montreal when I'm there. Quote

God I cant wait to get back to montreal when I'm there. :clap: as clean as it is boring: plus side: only 2 hours from mtl. Edited November 10, 2007 by marky_and_komi Quote
markierung Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 come live in St-Leonard. It's really safe cause the mob keeps the gangs out!!! Quote
jetsniper Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 I'd pitch Calgary but I'd prefer people moved away rather then MORE people moving here. Plus you'd only get to see your Habs once every 3 years. While thats still more then you get to see them in Japan, you're still probably better off in the East. Quote
MAK Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 calgary would be a nice place. it'd be my choice had I have to live somewhere else in canada. Quote
JMMR Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 CIty is fun always something to do. Hate the sens fans and good luck finding a wendys thats open late Quote
jetsniper Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 calgary would be a nice place. it'd be my choice had I have to live somewhere else in canada. Please don't. And it's nothing personal. Honest. This boom means I'll be living with my dad until I'm 30 OR I need about 80 roommates. It's too stinkin crowded here, everyone from Saskatchewan needs to go back to Saskatchewan! Quote
JLP Posted November 10, 2007 Author Posted November 10, 2007 isn't Calgary a bit, umm, "rustic"? Quote
Pierre the Great Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 Downtown Vancouver, then again, if you want out of Japan type atmosphere, Downtown Vancouver probably isn't the best option since you'd be living in a condo in a sky tower. Then again if you're an outdoors person, we've got Calgary beat. They can't go golfing in the winter. haha Quote
Trizzak Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 isn't Calgary a bit, umm, "rustic"? and there is a problem with that? why I outta... Quote
johnnyhasbeen Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 Come East to Halifax, we are booming, real estate is still affordable, jobs are plentiful, and the night life is amazing. Just have to get use to the dampness, but it is Nov and my roses still have flowers! Sort of... Okay they are brown, not white, but they are still roses in my eyes. Quote

Thanks! also considering other spots in Canada if anyone wants to pitch a particular city! Just get as far away from Montreal as you can or you might steal my job! Quote
Pierre the Great Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Just get as far away from Montreal as you can or you might steal my job! more like he'd be your boss. Quote
jetsniper Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 isn't Calgary a bit, umm, "rustic"? :lol: I'm glad to see the stereotypes at work again. Then again if you're an outdoors person, we've got Calgary beat. They can't go golfing in the winter. haha Yeah we can. Quote
Pierre the Great Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 :lol: I'm glad to see the stereotypes at work again. Yeah we can. please maybe only one day during the the chinooks. You can go golfing everyday in winter here. we have the sea we have better mountains better looking people Quote
jetsniper Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Why are you telling me how things go in Calgary? Quote
Pierre the Great Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 dunno. people have told me who things are in st. louis for years, when they never lived there. just returning the favour i guess. crappy day Quote
jetsniper Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 dunno. people have told me who things are in st. louis for years, when they never lived there. just returning the favour i guess. crappy day Returning the favor generally includes the same people. Thats why you're returning it. It's like Mils said (in this thread? I'm not sure). Debating whether one city is better then another is one of the most pointless things in the world. Quote

jetsniper Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 I can't comment specifically on that but if I base it off of what I've heard from other Avs fans, I think you're probably right. Quote
JLP Posted November 23, 2007 Author Posted November 23, 2007 thanks for the input friends, I am also looking at where the weather is best and the houses are not so expensive, doesn't have to be a big city, a smaller city that's within an hour or two of a metropolis might be nice . . . Quote
