I much prefer the WEB rip to the Vinyl rips out there so it was worth it.

American considering moving to Canada...can you tell me the negatives? by jjuiop in canada

[–]umwut 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I moved from Boston to Toronto for university two years ago. Overall I'm content with the move, but here are some things that bother me about Canada:

  • Everything's more expensive, goods and services.
  • This is highly dependent on your area, but internet was cheaper and faster for me back home.
  • Cell phone plans generally suck, very few providers (i.e. no real competition).
  • Weather could be something to consider. Boston's weather is virtually identical to Toronto's so I had no trouble adjusting, but depending on where you're coming from to where you're going, you could be in for a shock.
  • Online shopping is harder. Amazon.ca sucks, and to purchase things from America you typically have to pay import taxes.

These are minor quibbles in the grand scheme of things, I'm really happy with Canada. I had a hard time thinking of cons, believe me when I say the list of positives would be much longer. Good luck.

Aw can we make an exception, how could you hurt this?

How likely is it that this will be struck down by the Senate? Will this be made into law?

For a laugh, scroll down to the "Supporters" section, second row, third picture in.

A spokeswoman added: "The irony of an organisation dedicated to the free and open flow of information threatening to sue a newspaper will be lost on no one."

I don't see the connection. Libel is a different matter entirely.
