If you could move closer to Canada, would you?

[C.C.D.]

You have a choice between...

a. living a half-day drive from the border in a semi-Blue area with a relatively good economy and lots of vegetarians.

b. living 15 minutes from the border in a Red area with a not so great economy and very few vegetarians.

(Pretend you like vegetarians AND snow, okay?)

[HEyHEY]

1. Clarify it ....

"If you could move to Canada and hang out with HEyHEY."

[Cobalt Violet]

2. a.

Where are we talking about?

[lenidog]

3. Well lets see here

I guess I am screwed because I live in a blue area with a not so great economy and I am an omnivore.

[REP]

4. FUCK NO!

I hate cold weather with a passion, and I'm not a vegetarian. Plus, I live in 'blue' state.

[HEyHEY]

5. There are plenty of warm places in Canada

And I'm not joking

It's colder in NYC right now than many places in Canada

[REP]

6. I Wouldn't Live In NYC, Either

I HATE cold weather!

I live in the SF Bay area, where "cold" means 40F, not -40F!

[HEyHEY]

10. Buddy... Vancouver BC's average winter temp is 40 F

[C.C.D.]

13. Nice. The average here is like 8. Right now its 0, next week -30!!

[REP]

15. Nice!

But still not the SF Bay area!

(And I'm a chick, so shouldn't that be "Baby" instead of "Buddy"?)

[HEyHEY]

16. Nah....buddy works

Hey...Vancouver was voted the number city to live in worldwide like three times in the last five years... it's a groovy place

[REP]

18. I Know There's Lots To Like About Canada

I just wish they could warm the place up a little, that's all. Until then, I'll just continue to admire Canada from the Bay.

[HamiltonHabs32]

26. why dont....

you westcoasters simply become our newset province, youll love it....plus gives us a place to have a cheap vacation haha.

/it probably wouldnt be that simple

[C.C.D.]

17. Could you list some of the nicer areas?

I'm going to tour your country via the organic farming program and get to choose the areas.

[HEyHEY]

19. You want the Okanagan for certain....Vancouver Island, PEI

Those are my Favs - Quebec too!

[HEyHEY]

22. Pic of the Okanagan

I live near this

[ThoughtCriminal]

7. Ah, all the crappy weather and none of the benefits

Like having a room in Hell with a nice view of Heaven.

[C.C.D.]

12. Heh. Lets say you are used to the crappy weather...

[smurfygirl]

8. well, I live in a red state, am a vegan, and

like wearing sweaters, so I guess Canada would be alright. I could not be that far from my family though. So I'll stay in this god forsaken red state until the ice shelf melts so I can have beach front property.

[susanna]

9. I guess I'm lucky.

I'm in a bluer-than-blue area a mile from the river (border).

on edit: omnivore area, though

[TheFarseer]

11. A all the way

although I can't say living by alot of vegitarians is a big draw for me personally!

[femme.democratique]

14. Option A: Seattle baby, Seattle

Two hours to Vancouver, True Blue state, great coffee, friendly people, cool space needle...

best of all worlds!

[bliss_eternal]

24. Seattle sounds cool!

I hope to check it out this year!

[DemoVet]

20. I live in the People's Republic of Ann Arbor

If I lived much closer I'd be in Canada.

[Maple]

21. Southwestern Ontario

Warm and sunny today, no snow.

If I'd been going out to the store, I'd have worn shorts.

[HEyHEY]

23. All of BC was a christmas shake up ball today - even the LM

I'll tell you this! Anytime I hear a fucking Interior resident laughing at how "Vancouverites can't drive in the snow." I'm gonna lay into him..it was NOTHING but accidents here today.

[daleo]

25. There's nothing wrong with a little cold weather and snow.

It develops character and a cooperative attitude. Look at the Scandinavians. That's what my dad always said, anyhow.

The last few weeks have been very character building around my neck of the woods (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada). Just about -30 Celsius the other night.
