  1. Friendly ,pleasant /very accepttin gin multiculturalism

    sorry we DO NOT HAVE STATES WE HAVE PROVINCES!!!


  2. Canada is a highly developed country with excellent working conditions, an outstanding education system,a very high standard of living and health care system ranked one of the best in the world.For your information we don't have states we have provinces and Montreal is not a province it's the largest city in Quebec.Go to Niagara Falls and Toronto if you haven't seen it yet and Montreal is a great city as well I would suggest you to spend at least a day or two in there and of course British Colombia is another beautiful province in Canada.

  3. Passive people, aggressive weather.

    No states -- provinces.

    Second-largest country in the world. Unlimited choices for a holiday.

  4. The places you mention cover three provinces - Quebec, Ontario, and British Columbia - a huge chunk of Canada.  Where you go depends on your interests.  If this is your first time to Canada and if your time is limited, you might want to see a few highlights and learn a little so that you will know better what you want to see and do on subsequent trips.  It is relatively easy to see parts of both Ontario and Quebec on one trip.

    In Ontario try to see Toronto, Ottawa and Niagara Falls.  They are significant tourist destinations.  Do online searches for things to see and do but in Toronto consider the CN Tower, Kensington Market, China Town, the Distillery District, and St. Lawrence Market as well as museums and the Air Canada Center.  Go to Niagara Falls - a must see.  In Ottawa visit the Parliamanet Buildings and see the Rideau Canal.  Check tourist information centers for more ideas.

    From Toronto you can easily fly to Montreal and see the sights there.  Montreal is a great city for night life, and awesome food.  I don't know it well, but my friends say great things about it.  Try to see Quebec City as well - an historic old city.

    Canada is clean, safe, and friendly.  You will be made welcome.  Best of luck and enjoy your trip.

  5. Canada is a great place to live, but as for where you would like to visit depends a lot on what you enjoy....we do have many great cities in all the provinces and territories each with something to offer to visitors....personally I enjoy the smaller places as I find cities to all be relatively the same as everywhere else....smaller towns and villages are friendlier and give you more of a sense of how many of us live. Do some research...decide what you like...camping (be aware of bug season), skiing, festivals, architect, fishing, museums, ranching....the list is endless...enjoy your visit here and I am confident you will want to return for another holiday.

  6. Living in Canada is a lot like living in the U.S. minus the gun culture, frequent mass homicides, continual war, Christian coalition, George Bush, super patriotism, fear mongering and celebrity obsession/celebration (or is it just Britney obsession).  For the most part our cities are cleaner and less violent, our climate is colder, the people are more reserved and modest, and we are known for our comics and comic actors.  You can tell a lot about us by our favourite sport...hockey...which for the most part does not have the prima donnas and hype of the more celebrated and wealthy sports of baseball, football and basketball in the U.S. Come visit us.  We love visitors and immigrants.

  7. it's so relaxing living here!!!people are all loving, friendly and welcoming. Since it's multi-cultural, you feel less discriminated by one another!! The summer in Vancouver is the best here, it's so lovely!!!However, it rains a lot during spring!

  8. Best place in the world , low crime rate , 2 largest country in the world and one the lowest populated country per square mile . Gorgeous mountains in the west and some of the largest fresh water lakes in the world . No State  but we call them Provinces  , I love the province of Quebec especially northen Quebec . ST -Sauveur , St-Jerome , Mont Tremblant , St -Agathe ,  Montreal , Sherbrooke , Quebec City . BC is too expensive but gorgeous , Northern Ontario beautiful as well . Best thing to do is figure out what you want and do and go from there .

  9. TOP 8 real deal  about Canada!

    8. Discriminatory and Dishonest Immigration System.

    Immigration to Canada is based on a point system, obtained with your education, qualifications and job experience. Points are good enough for immigration, but in Canada, they are not good enough to get a job in your field. Amazing, how the credentials that qualify you to come to Canada are the same credentials that don't qualify you for your profession in Canada. The reason is, Canada only wants immigrants to do the labor jobs - pizza delivery, driving taxis, factory work etc.

    7. Out Of Control Cost Of Living.

    From rent, to utility bills, to shopping, to phone, internet and cable bills, to gas, to car insurance, to eating out, to basically anything you have to pay for or buy, the cost of living in Canada has become astronomical. Recent immigrants are astonished as to how expensive everything is. It is estimated that compared to most countries around the world, the cost of living in Canada is on average five times greater.

    6. Health Care Crisis.

    Practicing physicians in Canada are in a shortage, 1 in 4 Canadians cannot get a family doctor. Canadian doctors are leaving to move permanently to the United States. Statistics Canada and the Canadian Medical Association both have identified that for every 1 American doctor that moves to Canada, 19 (nineteen) Canadian doctors move to the United States! Doctors in Canada are overworked and underpaid, and there is a cap on their salaries.

    5. Very High Taxes.

    Yes, you have the GST, the PST, totaling 15%, on practically everything you purchase and many other taxes taken out of our weekly paycheck. You have to pay a whopping amount to the government, out of your hard earned salary, so that the government can turn around and give it to beer drinking, hockey watching welfare bums. Fair? It does not matter, it's Canada.

    4. Money Hungry Government.

    Canadian Embassies around the world lie to foreigners, painting this picture that Canada is Utopia, because they want them to come to Canada. Why? Because foreigners bring money! So after being deceived, these foreigners come. They must bring with them at least $10,000. Canada has an immigration quota of 250,000 per year. So please do the math, 250,000 multiplied by $10,000 each equals a whopping 2.5 Billion dollars that Canada gains from immigrants every year.

    3. No Culture.

    Unlike almost every other country in the world, Canada has no culture. Actually American culture is what dominates Canada. When was the last time you had some 'Canadian' food? There are no Canadian traditions and there is no national identity. What does it even mean to call yourself a 'Canadian'. . .nothing really. People living in Canada, still identify themselves with the country they 'originally' came from.

    2. Worst Weather.

    Yes, Canada has the worst weather conditions of any country in the world. Freezing cold temperatures, snow, ice, hail, winds, storms etc. From the Prairie provinces to the Maritimes, from the Territories to southern Ontario, the weather is so horrific and disgusting that many Canadians leave Canada simply because of this reason alone.

    1. No Jobs.

    Yes, coast to coast, there are no jobs. Immigrants are highly qualified (MD's, PhD's, Lawyers, Engineers etc.) but they are driving taxi cabs, delivering pizza's or working in factories. Even people with bachelors degrees from Canadian Universities cannot find jobs after graduation. This is the tragedy associated with immigration to Canada. I feel sorry for those immigrants who are stuck in Canada for the rest of their lives. It is indeed a very sad and hopeless future.
