I know he's a gambler ... well based on that one time I saw him and Kenins at Edgewater but I barely gambled myself so really had no chance of seeing him. I'm sure he probably bought a mansion close by... homes are so cheap there. There was a 4 bedrooom house with a pool for 350k... Can't even get a 500sqft apartment over here with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn... that's crazy. I'm just going based on my own speculation but maybe it's because drugs are so accessible that it leads to mental health problems and ultimately suicide? I'm sort of contemplating it though... I'm just so fed up with Vancouver. I bust my ass and all I have to show for is a government that promotes money laundry and outsiders to make it unlivable for us. You know what the worst part is? I know so many millionaire families that launder their money in, claim 0 income and don't pay $75/month for MSP, don't pay income taxes I do... use our roads, healthcare etc.... and they get that GST refund cheque in the mail which local workers dont. Yet the government just promotes it and I can't possibly afford a 700 sqft condo downtown even if I make 80-110k a year working 60 hours a week. By the time you pay rent, car, insurance, cell, food, etc... you can barely save. Even if I go to Vegas and take a lower end job and make 50k, my quality of life would be drastically better.

Sygvard Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I live in the Northwest Territories. I was named after a dog that saved my fathers life from a polar bear. The only thing to do for fun is go out in the -55 weather and play shinny in our parkas. The fact that any humans have chosen to live in this hellish frozen wasteland baffles me. But somehow I am still here. O Canada eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people are nice here. And the housing is relatively cheap. Ideally, I'd never completely move away from Saskatchewan, which is a far cry from how I felt two years ago, when all I wanted to do was move back to Vancouver.

Calgary has mountains only 30 minutes away, no PST, cheaper booze, and the Chinook winds periodically melt the snow in the winter (so it doesn't build up over months like in most other areas in Canada). And I own a house in the inner-city that cost me 1/3 of what it would of in Vancouver. With less jobs and higher housing prices than a few years ago, it's not quite as cut-and-dry of an option for many as it once was. But overall, I like it.
