Don't move to Clearwater, BC and area

[PoliticalNick]

It's probably the banjo again.

LOL!

Hes to busy watching Deliverance which by the way I heard was based on Clearwater...

1- learn to use the quote function if you intend to stick around

2- got JLM pegged after 3 posts, not that it was a tough test

3- It's a true story from Clearwater, not just based upon it

4- You are still a low-class idiot and we would all be better off if you moved off the planet

5- see you at the breakfast next Sunday ;-)

It's a Pancake Breakfast not a Royal Social...

So yes there may be a banjo and some may not have teeth.

Fairly ignorant post as indicated by outsiders complaining about the denizens. A little hint for you, the residents will probably be happier to see you leave than you will be to get out. I'd be surprised if you've contributed anything of value to their community.

Your a very angry human....Either the Whisky bottle is empty or your Banjo broke....

Sorry! You'd be dead wrong...............I just don't believe in denigrating people in THEIR territory!

And I think he's jealous of your banjo skills.

Will you at least come to our monthly Pancake Breakfast?

As long as theres no banjo players and people have teeth

FUKk are you stupid. Probably why all the smart people in Clearwater don't want anything to do with you. You bring the average intelligence down below room temperature. Go back to whatever concrete hive you got the boot from and beg forgiveness. I bet you would rather listen to symphony than go to a demolition derby.

I just found religion...I've seen an actual miracle. The same day somebody comes in complaining about Clearwater we get another new member from Clearwater. 2 new members from a backwater town of 3500 in the same day. A true miracle my friends. ROFLMAO!!!

I respect people and where they live as well. This place however needs some serious help.

As "Dumboville" would indicate.

Well that was funny I must admit.Google Clearwater and it brings up Marigolds post. Im just saying I agree with what she has to say.We just moved here and its odd how this Marigold nailed everything about this place.

 

[Concernedwater]

Rad should be banned! I do not like bully's.

Im hard working as well unfortunately this is were I found a job. You saying Get out of my city is exactly my point.Try being a bit more respectful to the new people I just moved here and everyone has been rude.Marigold who posted originally had some valid opinions and I agree with her.Until you start being more friendly and not so racist Clearwater will never amount to anything.You need to be more respectful with all the tourists coming in this place has some potential but attitudes need to change!

Rad should be banned! I do not like bully's.

Bully? I cant express my opinion? There seems to be others who are just as much bullies on this thread.You welcome to ban me.

Warning about Clearwater!!

My family and I are writing this to advise those wishing to move to BC CANADA on why NOT to relocate to the town of Clearwater and area. We are newer to the community and have lived all over but this place is really not what BC is all about. Property is cheap, the town can be a resume builder, but at a high price.

Why you don't want to live in Clearwater,BC and area:

1. outsiders are not welcome - everybody is cliquey and paranoid about anyone new.
2. wasps - they almost look like bees, but they are aggressive and bite over and over for no reason. They swarm your car and then chase you in droves when you get out, only to sting over and over.
3. mosquitos - a cloud of mosquitos follows you everywhere outdoors between April and October.
4. headaches - a high pressure zone for weather changes, you can expect migraines regularly.
5. radiation - the BC centre for disease control rates it as one of the highest naturally radiated zones in BC, if not Canada. There has been discussion about building a cancer institute/hospital close to Clearwater to deal with all of the leukaemia and brain tumours.
6. snow - buy a 4 x 4 vehicle with lots of clearance and studded tires or forget driving. The roads are not maintained, you live in the mountains and will slide all over the place-some people slide right off cliffs into the Thompson River and drown.
7. recreation (lack of) - we moved here because we like the outdoors. Forget hiking - the trails are not maintained and the wasps will prevent you from getting out of your vehicle. In the winter you better own a snowmobile and a hefty truck to move the thing or there is nothing to do. No dirt bike trails. Largest park in north america with some of the worst access roads and poorly maintained trails - some of the supposed trails don't even have a trail head to find the place.
8. tourism - drives the economy through summer. Don't know why anyone comes here-most people end up disappointed with their holidays! The place falls asleep outside of June through August and even the bakery closes. The campers that go 30km/h one after the other through the park are impossible to pass and make driving frustrating.
9. dental/medical - very spotty coverage. Move somewhere with a better set up if you have a chronic disease.
10. real estate - cheap but you get what you pay for. most properties are dilapidated and if yours isn't, your neighbour's place is.
11. rentals - get ready to live in a mobile home that doesn't stay warm, with pipes that freeze in the winter- who needs water anyway? You can survive without water in the winter, right? This is renting in Clearwater - shabby building codes and no one to reinforce the rules. No one cares!
12. groceries/shopping - prepare to drive 1.5h to Kamloops if you want meat that doesn't smell rotten, fruit that isn't mushy/bruised, a haircut that is even, or clothes that aren't used 3x over from the second hand thrift store. There is no proper shopping in this town.
13. Gasoline- there is something seriously wrong with the gas in this place. Both my vehicles suddenly need fuel filters. Do they dilute the gas with mud?
14. general ignorance- people here aren't educated, it's like they haven't even completed high school basic science classes. many people here haven't been anywhere else and they will argue about things that anyone else in the world who has been somewhere or gone to school would know is untrue. They shoot dogs in their backyards, drown/torture cats, run animals over on the roads without blinking, starve their horses, and generally think that they are right about everything when a basic google search will find the facts and prove them wrong. BUT be careful not to prove them wrong or you will be an outcast for knowing more.


I hope this helps understand why not to move here. We are getting out of here as soon as possible as it is ignorant hickville suffrage living in this place. Go anywhere else in BC!!!!

This is the original post as funny as it sounds.This person was right!

Seems I'm alone on this one, but I absolutely loved travelling through rural Canada. Canadians were welcoming, and friendly. I can't say I dislike any of the places I stayed in. From NFLD (loved NFLD, felt I wanted to become a writer ), the food and people of PEI (wow), NS & NB (very similar - great views and the food!! OMG, QC (just wow, liked every part, especially the Gaspecie); Ontario (spend a couple weeks north of Kingston, and it was soon nice I could truly move there, I remember a mural city! ; The whole West Coast was just amazing, absolutely saw so many nice spots I cannot list them here, BC was fabulous. I've gone through many parts of the US, and also saw a lot of nice places, and found the people equally nice, but Canada to me was special. But to each their own I guess )

I 'm actually thinking of moving to Clearwater or somewhere just like it .

What's your occupation?

I could have told you that-all of rural Canada is uninhabitable.

Uninhabitable to whom? Certainly not to me! Urban Canada can be sudden death in a heart beat.

It's not that I feel that way it's something I know for a fact.

An old old friend of mine recently moved back to the city after many years in the hinterlands his health has deteriorated to the point where he can't survive on the shoestring that passes for health care.

Sadly his sojourn in the Cariboo has left his mind atrophied his vocabulary decimated and his prospects dim-there is little hope.

Quiet people who mind their own business don't need a large vocabulary. Perhaps you haven't heard the old adage "actions speak louder than words". (My cousin and her husband ran a mobile home park in Clearwater for years and had no problem with the place)

So we shouldn't expect you at our weekly Canadian Content Spaghetti Supper?

Be glad it's not pot luck.
