AAHHHH!! what is the best canadian city to live in?

[Boach]

Barely enforced. We've walked down all the main streets drinking shine and smoking and never had a problem. Even if you get pulled over, they won't do fuck all. They might try to steal it for themselves, but then you tell them to look over there and run away.

You see, dread. All the crazies live in Canada. You have a better chance of finding a more normal environment in the village.

yeah i hear someone is trying to give her a rap for being "nuts" too.




OAK you are INSANE for suggesting someone live in hamilton or london. london is BOOOORING and crawling with annoying undergrads (30K of them)... and hamilton is as dirty as heck imo.

Umm actually I lived near the Beaches area of toronto for four years and found the air pollutuong worse there then in Hamilton.

People in Hamilton and other smaller cities outside Toronto are not stuck up like the majority of Toronto people are as well.
Plus you dont have to pay $300000-400000 for a friggin townhouse in these areas.

Take it from someone that lives in Toronto, you will never be bored here. I guess you could say it is the Canadian version of New York. (OF course Canada is alot less hectic and crazy). I would suggest moving to Montreal, believe it or not they don't speak that much french there. Plus the area is a whole lot nicer not to mention not as expensive. Where ever you end up you will love Canada. Good Luck!

Chinook Winds
Indian for snow eater, a chinook wind comes from over the Rocky Mountains and sweeps across the foothills and other parts of Alberta.The warming effect can reach as far as Edmonton in central Alberta and can reach Swift Current in Saskatchewan.

But the strongest effect from the Chinook is felt is southern Alberta. In Crowsnest Pass, where the Chinook effects are the greatest, they average 30 Chinook days per year. At the foothills, Calgary averages 25 days. And in Medicine Hat, near the Alberta border, they average 20 days.

The Alberta Chinook
The Alberta Chinook is part of a class of winds called foehn winds. As the warm, dry, gusty wind descends down the mountain slopes, temperatures can increase many degrees in minutes. The temperature usually goes well above 0°C (30°F) and snow melts while spirits soar.

The view as a Chinook rolls over the Foothills is unique. An arch of wispy, white clouds appears in the western sky paralleling the the Rocky Mountains. The clouds look like ghost-like fingers dancing across the sky.

As the Chinook affects increase, winds begin to gust from the Southwest or West. The winds reach speeds typically between 40 and 80 kilometers per hour (25 and 50 miles per hour). They are capable of reaching tree bending and breaking speeds of up to 160 kilometers per hour (100 mile per hour).

The Making of a Chinook
The process of making a Chinook wind starts not in the Rocky Mountains but in the Pacific Ocean. Over the Pacific Ocean a westerly winds begins blowing and collects the warm,moist air toward the west coast of British Colombia. As the moisture-laden air reaches the coast,the air encounters the first set of mountains before reaching the Rocky Mountains on the western Alberta border.



As the warm, moist Pacific air meets the Coastal Mountains range it begins an upward ascent over the western slope of mountains. As it climbs the mountain the air begins to expand and cool. Some of the moisture in the air condenses and falls to the ground as rain or snow. As the precipitation falls great amounts of stored heat is released. The air that descends down the eastern slope of the mountain is drier and warmer, warming at a rate that is twice the cooling rate.

As the air moves eastward, it encounters a second set of mountains in B.C.'s interior. This process repeats a second time at this mountain range. So more water has been rung from the Pacific air,resulting in still warmer weather that is approaching Alberta.

As the air approaches the Rocky Mountains, the process begins a third time. The compression of the air by the mountains raises the temperature by 8°C to 10°C over the Pacific air that started out over the ocean, at the same elevation on the west side of the Coastal Mountains.

The Chinook wind is a welcome winter rest from the regular winter weather. Residents dig deep into their closets and haul out their spring and fall garments. For a few days they enjoy the warm, sunny weather before encountering winter again.
