I would also argue that the people are nicer, more open-minded, and the streets are safer.



I would agree with those statements as well...except for the weed part as I have no experience in that area on either side of the border.

I'd move there just for the fishing if it wasn't considered "unamerican". We should have just taken BC when we had the chance. Yeah, we may have ruined it faster but I would have gotten some good fishing years out of it before it went to hell.
