Canada

[2DUM2TAP]

as an american, i've never been to canada, either. if an american goes to any major canadian city, will canadians be able to spot the american out, with the accent-alone? i know we sound a lot alike, but i can sometimes point out a canadian from a crowd, just based on a slight accent, and certain words they use.

To be fair the flappy head is kind of a give away for us Canucks.

Lol at Saskatchewan and Winnipeg.

Have you been? I have. People shit talk Saskatchewan and Manitoba.... and yeah... in the winter it kinda sucks. But there is beauty all around you.

Summer in Saskatchewan is quite beautiful.

Same with Manitoba

Everything I say in this post is true. This has all been either confirmed if not admitted by the groups mentioned along with the government.

I've been to a dozen countries or more and have seen so many that treat minorities better.

Are you white? If you're white, Canada is an awesome place to be. White people will say Canada is pretty good for sure, not knowing how freakin awesome it is for them.

If you are not white, you must be pretty lucky or quite sheltered.

Everyone, do some research. Google the study on racism in Canada from last year. Google Digby Lobster fishing from this morning or yesterday. Google residential schools, the 60's scoop, how Asians and Blacks were treated historically and now, the fruit machine, how husbands could LEGALLY RAPE their wives in Canada until the early 1980s.

All of this lingers, Canada is a cesspool when it comes to how women, minorities, and other groups such as the LGBT2SQQ groups are treated. Institutions that govern and dictate our lives based on PURE racism, deep rooted, and vile, quiet, insidious.

Hell, our current national police, The RCMP/Mounties were founded to round up, kill, and kick Indigenous peoples around. Americans, imagine the people that killed all the Natives in your country were and are still the ones policing you. Maybe they are the way they seem to kill and treat minorities? But imagine the same group, going from Genocide to policing.

Again, everything I say here is true. Nothing is exaggerated, if anything, gory details are left out.

Point on the map where these perfect places are? Where is this utopia that we have all been searching for that has always been in an eternal state of bliss and enlightenment?

You must be a masochist. haha. I've been there in February.

based on all the posts i've read from @therealdope, i really want to check out banff. it looks amazing.

Banff is fun, it is great right now because it isn't swarming with tour groups. We spent last weekend there and it was the quietest I have ever seen it.
If you ever come up do the drive to Jasper on hwy 93 it is unreal.

Hey @Clippy what part Canada are you from?

@Zer didn't you say you're living in Canada now?
Or I'm imaging things.

I've never been to my neighbor in North. It a
couple hours drive from where I live. If this
pandemic is ever taking care of I'd like there
maybe Vancouver BC.

If I do what are good places to check out?

Go up to Whistler, go to the Sunshine Coast (Sechelt), go to Vancouver Island (lots of great camping and hiking), don't go to Vancouver.

 

[HelloJapan]

I've never been to Kelowna, but I've heard from multiple people that have been all over Canada, that it is beautiful.

Kelowna is ok, but there are way better places closer to the coast. Kelowna is only kinda cool during the Summer, then you're stuck with a bunch of Fraser Valley tourists. Pass.

I've lived in Canada for like 15 years now bro. I live in southern Alberta in a place called Medicine Hat. We got the worlds tallest teepee

Definitely not! It was like being in the Tundra.

Banff is literally one of the most beautiful places in the entire world.

Snowed in Edmonton, Alberta today...never going to live there again.

It can get brutal for sure but you clearly haven't been in the Tundra! Go check out like Rankin Inlet in the winter. Been there. Been to White Horse, Yellowknife, Iqaluit. That extra - 10 degrees difference is a killer.

I think the coldest day I had was one time I flew from Toronto where it was like minus 10 to Vancouver for a couple days and it was like plus 15 degrees, then had to fly out to High Level where it was minus 45 and super super windy. The fine powder snow felt like tiny hail whipping against my face. Just killed me. To much fluctuation. Only been that cold once before and was on top of a mountain.

Couple weeks later I was up in Whitehorse. Had much better clothing for that trip. Lesson learned.

Same in Calgary.

Allegedly as deep at 25 cm this upcoming weekend; that's 10", for the Yanks.
