    Damn i was just looking at Canadian taxes....
    http://www.taxtips.ca/tax_rates.htm#CombinedTaxRates

    Generally speakings earnings over 100K are taxed anywhere from 40% - 53% depending on the province (seems like all more heavily populated areas had the higher taxes)

    Those rates are crazy!

      Nevermind.

      Anyway, it is you who has been comparing NYC to Winnipeg, not the other way around. You began running your cockhole at me first, after all.

      Are we canadians driving you simply over the edge of madness yet?

      Come on.... admit it. You want to stab me don't you?

                Let's talk housing. The same house here costing $150K costs up to five times that in Toronto or Vancouver.

                $200k goes quite a long way here.

                Someone selling their home in Toronto for $500K could come here, buy an even better home for $250k and bank the rest.


                And they wouldn't have to listen to trains rumbling past their kitchen window like Abner's family does.

                  Our beer is strong, and it's 2:30 in the fucking morning. If you're sober and posting on GFY at this time, get a life. Actually you're probably the type of douchebag who runs his posts through a spell check. Again, get a life.

                  Have fun crying about spelling when people make you look like a retard, we're all really impressed. I'm sorry you have to stay in the shack your relatives live in and you can't afford the grocery stores when you come here, if you had a couple bucks in your pocket you'd have a much better time. Next time you're here, call me and I'll buy you a box of your favorite brand, right from any of the hundreds of stores people who don't pay with food stamps go to. One tip, when you're on vacation here, bring at least four dollars. I don't know where your family shops, but don't look for brand name cereal at the dollar store on north Main. Soup kitchens are also a bad choice.

                    Yeah in Canada that would be 25.88 years of age after the currency conversion.

                          It's nice to get that much more for your US dollars.

                          On the other hand, the mean average for IQ in Canada is a full 3 and 1/3 points higher than in America.

                          It's a trade off I guess.

                            Abner's obviously going to go a long way on this board with whatever little, um, advertising business he might have.

                            Yup. I wanna run right out and have Abner do advertising for me. hooyeah.

                                You should come visit BC one day. We can get real drunk and argue politics. Well, in between laughing at our new friend here.

                                  What could be more fun than slapping lil Abner around?

                                          + plus they don't have all the brand name cereals (lucky charms, coco puffs, etc)

                                          God bless the USA.

                                          haha... we do have brand name cereals here man... lol... I love lucky charms.

                                          I don't mind Winnipeg too much its not too bad.

                                            Yup. I wanna run right out and have Abner do advertising for me. hooyeah.

                                            I'm going to bed. Glad this thread could end so gloriously for us Winnipeggers.

                                              It's a trade off I guess.

                                                Somebody better tell Hefner what an ugly place with ugly women we have here, because his people are in town recruiting for Playboy (again) as we speak.

                                                Hey, isn't Hef an American?

                                                              i'm loosely considering moving up there - i understand taxation and unemployment are fairly high in comparison to the states, and that major health issues aren't rectified in exactly a timely manner.

                                                              i may be way off base though. let me know.
                                                              funny I ask the same question about moving to the states, the responce I get is...

                                                              we dont want you here, fuck off, stupid canadians, etc etc.

                                                              question yourself on how many canadians say that to you on this post, and your on your first step of seeing how things are over here. jk- just as many assholes over here I'm sure. I was just upset because of all the haters and judging a person upon a country they live in and the ppl that control it.

                                                              seriously thou, canada is a beautiful country, peaceful to a sense, crazy shit still goes down here.. my best friend moved to california and he said it has everything and anything you wanted its there. I am sure there are places like that in canada, but ottawa is not one of them, pretty boring here depending what you like to do, montreal is great for night life but the ppl there are not the friendly type.

                                                                Gnight fellas,

                                                                  $200k goes quite a long way here.

                                                                  Someone selling their home in Toronto for $500K could come here, buy an even better home for $250k and bank the rest.


                                                                  And they wouldn't have to listen to trains rumbling past their kitchen window like Abner's family does.
                                                                  You have a good point... I didn't compare cost of living in Canada to the cost of living in the US. But what other big ticket items besides houses cost far less in Canada that in the US? What about plasma TV's, or perhaps nice cars? How do costs of finer restaurants compare to the US costs?

                                                                  It just seems to me that for those people who have more expensive all-around tastes, that Canada would cost them more money with those tax rates.

                                                                                A good meal out at a fine restaurant can easily run you $100-$150 for you and your lady here, but so can it in many parts of the US. Now, subtract the US exchange rate of just under 30 cents on the dollar or 30% and you've got savings.

                                                                                As for big-ticket purchases like cars and TV's, again it's all in where you buy from. One example is this: I live in Winnipeg, but if I want a deal at a US location all I need do in many cases is simply go online and make my purchase. If I can get something cheaper on the web, and I often do, I buy it. I get charged a duty when it comes over the border and it's at my door.

                                                                                Rent: The rent on a shitty apartment in many cities in N. America is $1000-$1500/mo. In Winnipeg you can get a pretty nice apartment for $500-$800/mo.

                                                                                You can get quite a shitload of groceries here for $300 bucks, but again it depends on where you shop. Some things like movies are pricey but that's the same as anywhere you go. The real savings is in the major life-purchases, like a home, real estate, cottage etc.
