Where would you rather reside?

[Andem]

There are tons of different factors which make when deciding on what to call home. For me, it's culture and politics. Political groups cannot be too radical like they are in some countries and the culture (IMO) has to be REAL.

Anyways, I wanted to get a feel on where you would like to live OTHER than Canada? What would you like to call home if Canada was no longer a choice? Please vote and explain your decision!

 

[Andem]

For the record, I would choose Europe as the culture is that of my own and the politics are more about the people than they are the corporations... Much like Canada!

Where in Europe? There are several places: Germany (well, I'd love to move back), Switzerland (I LOVE Swiss democracy! Love it!), Scandinavia (Ditto reasoning on Switzerland).

Sincerely I would pick south america. Why? because of the landscape. I could have alot of adventures there, serious ones to. I would like to see a jungle and who has not wanted to go down the amazon river. It still has places no one has probally ever seen. South america would be my choice. But I am never leaving the island.

RE: Where would you rathe

I picked Europe, but I think if I had to move I'd have a look at New Zealand. Fairly progressive government, no malaria, no major conflicts etc.

I picked the Carribean. I figured if I can't have Canada I want somewhere completely different. That way I could pretend to be on vacation for years.....

Scandinavia (Ditto reasoning on Switzerland).

And because I'm feeling a wee bit pedantic....Scandanavia isn't a country. lol Sorry. Sometimes I just have to do this stuff. I don't know why.

I wasn't referring to just one country. Scandinavia is Denmark, Sweden & Norway Either of those three would do.

I'd pick up and move to Asia in a Heartbeat. I fell in love with the people, the culture, the landscape, the history. No question.

A quiet,boring quaint little village somewhere outside of london,England with a fantastic library and internet access.

 

[peapod]

The only thing in that movie I enjoyed was the sawed off double barreled shotgun mikey used!

 

[missile]

Oh!Oh~! I'm starting to act like my avatar!

 

[peapod]

Well why wouldn't you enjoy that part you are philip marlowe are you not. Oh and please like the high window was masterpiece or something.

 

[missile]

All his books are favourites of mine.Wasn't The high Window just one of the short stories? Just about 200 pages-a novella?

 

[peapod]

Better go to the book thread to discuss such matters else we will get in trouble from you know who ^^^. It was a book in my uncle's outhouse at the lake.

I know peapod would never leave her island

I see, looking at the Results, that Canadians prefer Europe. Interesting :wink:

Well there are only 10 votes. But that's just a sampling of this forum. It may be different if you went and interviewed 1000 random people on the streets. Who knows

I think that most Canadians would go for the US :mrgreen: admit it! (...) I wonder what the answer of most Europeans will be. I think that if one would ask all Europeans that they had to move outside of Europe, which country or continent they prefered to go to, many would definitely prefer Canada ... along with the US I guess ... and Australia & New Zealand of course ... maybe some will go to Latin America ... or Asia ... but I do think that Canada will be among the top list

 

[Andem]

No Rick, there are not a lot of Canadians that I know personally who would want to move to the United States, especially right now which GWB in power. It might be different in regions though, like I would imagine more Albertans would rather live in USA than Europe. It's just Canada and Europe same many moral values and principles... and social structure.
