This for one is all lies about BC...first of we have three bridges and one tunell ,with one more new bridge on its way and the widing of another....The only houses five hours away that would be worth 700,000,I guess would be in portaland Oregon,as five hours any direction other then south you are pretty much in areas where very few people reside...There is only one Starbucks I can think of near here but about 10 Tim hortons...As far as the forestry goes its pretty much shut down,so even the protesters have found new signs to carry......I have only one problem with Albertain's.......Why if Alberta is such a great place to live do so many of you own homes in the interior of BC and scoop up all the good tee times here....stay home if iit so great there....LOL...

LOL....It DOES kinda look like some Albertan started this email.....{not me} I would someday love to own a vacation home in Tofino,but I don't think there's golf courses there,and if there are what sense is it to chase a little white ball around :???: :wink:I'd rather be laying on the beach drinking my Starbucks coffee.... :D
 
I can't for the life of me figure out why we would need a vacation Home in BC when we can get on West Jet and be on one of your courses in an hour and still be home in time for supper. My BIL has the odd 4 hour journey to work when it snows unexpectedly. Good thing for laptops and cell phones or those days wouldn't be very productive.
 
... And why is it that this email only revolves around Vancouver :? . There is way more to BC and way better places than Vancouver.... just about anywhere BC is better than Vancouver. Obviously whoever thought this up hasn't traveled beyond Vancouver :lol: , so sorry for them :roll: :lol: .
 
BC is nice to visit but no real urge to live there-our deer are bigger in Sask. Too many people in Alberta and the Greatest Show on Earth doesn't pay day money in the Novice Broncs lol. Manitoba only has one snowplow anytime I've driven there in the winter and-spits- they are the home of the Blue Bombers.

Isn't there a soccer team Burnt?

BC is just bar none a beautiful province. I also love Vancouver,such a stunning city,with the mountains and the flowering plants and trees we don't see in AB.I LOVED Granville Island,the best ever market!!!


I noticed NN didn't refute the weed part of his "home" province.... :p
 
TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN MANITOBA

1. You wake up one morning to find that you suddenly have a beachfront property.

Or sometimes you find yourself living in a house boat. :shock:

2. Hundreds of huge, horribly frigid lakes.

Full of fish!

3. Nothing compares to a wicked Winnipeg winter.

Nothing compares to a perfect Manitoba summer. I really mean that! Why do you think we put up with the winters? The summers are THAT GOOD!

4. You can be an Easterner or a Westerner depending on your mood.

True, but no one has ever been in the mood to be an Easterner.

5. You can pass the time watching trucks and barns float by.

There goes one now! :D :D :D
