i can’t believe that we have 12 more years of steven harper before his external shell starts corroding

TWELVE. MORE. YEARS.?????!!!

Now I’m not that great on Canadian elections but how is this even possible?

…

*whispers* come to Ontario!! *flutters away* (no but really Québec is my favourite province but my qualifications will all be to work in Ontario so bah)

I was thinking BC or Quebec. I mean I would move to Quebec but that would mean improving my French a lot more than it is right now. Also although I experienced it minimally during my six weeks in Montreal, I have heard reports of the French people there being…well, quite xenophobic and racist.

BC is therefore my first choice, since I don’t need to improve on any language to work there. I wanted to live in Vancouver but damn housing prices there are the most RIDICULOUS. I guess I could find somewhere else in BC that is less expensive to live in but close enough to Vancouver.

I’ve never been to Ontario. But it’s not orange, is it? At the last elections I’m pretty sure Quebec was the only province where NDP beat PC.

Ontario fluctuates quite a bit politically. Right now we have a Liberal provincial government but a shitload of conservative ridings. (And yes I would say that about Québec, they are not too keen on outsiders but that depends on where you go too.) If you are worried about language, living in Montréal shouldn’t give you too many problems because it is very bilingual. My mother was born there and she grew up there and she is only learning French now. (Though it is better to know French still) 

I have only been to BC once, and I just went to the touristy areas. From what I know of BC’s history, there is quite a bit of xenophobia and racism there as well, but like Québec and every other province, it will depend on where exactly you end up. I think that every province has some sort of history of racism, but I have heard that Alberta is especially bad with it. If you live in a city there should be stronger immigrant communities. I know a couple of people who live in BC, I can ask them about the province if you want? (I think one of them lives in Vancouver, or close by) It’s a shame that Harper slashed the budget for statistics Canada, otherwise there may have been some good stats to look at for different cities on living conditions, racism and sexism.
