Hamilton FTW! :p

But seriously, I grew up in Hamilton and have lived in Tokyo for 8 years. Tokyo is overcrowded, Toronto isn't. Toronto is a good sized city IMO. As for jobs canada isn't a good country for shifting people around to fill job vacancies. Also small cities are near impossible to find a good job in certain fields. I'll be heading back to the GTA because I can't find a good finance related job in Charlottetown or Halifax. They are great cities and a million times better than toronto but they lack the job market.

SOUTHERN Ontario, is starting to get overcrowded. Go to Sudbury or Timmins, you won't deal with overcrowding.
No it isn't. Long way to go for Southern Ontario to be crowded. Sure compared to most of Canada (which is empty) it's crowded but let's get some perspective.

Southern Ontario:
Density 86.4/km2

Pakistan
226.6/km2

United Kingdom
255.6/km2

Netherlands
497/km2

Bangladesh
1,034/km2

This just in:

CP24 Toronto has just reported that due to the recent flood and overcrowding around what little food and freshwater remain that 100's of 1000's of Torontonians have stormed the Pakistani Consulate seeking refugee status.

Toronto does not equal all of Ontario. There is PLENTY of room in this province.

And the train derailment almost destroying Quebec? No. It damaged a small town. Quebec is over a MILLION square kilometres.

Sadly, this is so true. When it comes to voting in Ontario, what Toronto says, goes. They have the most voting power BECAUSE of the population that votes.

Husband arrived October 17,2014
wow!!!!

See how easy we can get carried away with a Topic and it worked. I had been thinking its hard sometimes as the day seems so long when we are not with our spouses and I thought here is a story and everyone jumped at it to comment.

Hey everyone I'm happy I could change the subject and create a post where it makes our minds think which is great.

It gives a perspective on our Country to others how big it is. But when I lived there it was in the seventies, I came out of Grand Central Station and thought I was in another world on the size of everything.

Today I look at it and see people running here and there and no one cares about their neighbours.

I just moved into a place where from my window I see Sugar Loaf Mountain it was once a Volcano and my front window I see the beautiful Restigouche River that is famous all over the world for Salmon Fishing the most famous people come to fish actors, Presidents and Prime Ministers. Then across from the Restigouche River is the oldest Mountains in the world The Appalachian Mountains which are over 480 million years old. So when I say you can live anywhere I would rather see and live here then any place in Canada.



Sugarloaf Mountain is a 281.1 m (922 ft) mountain in the northern Appalachian Mountains in Campbellton, New Brunswick, Canada. The mountain is protected by Sugarloaf Provincial Park and lies within city limits, just south of the urban area.[1]
Geology
Sugarloaf Mountain is a Late Devonian age volcano.[2] Its formation is associated to a period of crustal thinning that followed the Acadian orogeny in the northern Appalachian Mountains.
Mi'kmaq legend
A Mi'kmaq legend states that Sugarloaf Mountain was created when Glooscap flung the leader of a group of giant beavers that had dammed the Restigouche River, blocking the salmon from their spawning grounds and depriving the Mi'kmaq of their food source. The beaver landed at the mountain's site and turned into rock, becoming Sugarloaf Mountain.[3]

The Restigouche River (often Ristigouche in French) is a river that flows across the northwestern part of the province of New Brunswick and the southeastern part of Quebec.

The river flows in a northeasterly direction from its source in the Appalachian Mountains of northwestern New Brunswick to Chaleur Bay. Its meander length is approximately 200 kilometres. The Restigouche is fed by several tributaries flowing south from Quebec's Notre Dame Mountains on the western edge of the Gaspé Peninsula (Kedgwick River, Gounamitz River, Patapédia River and Matapédia River) as well as the Upsalquitch River flowing north from New Brunswick's Chaleur Uplands.

Located mostly in New Brunswick

If the river is so good for salmon fishing, why are famous people instead fishing for actors? ??? :p
