If you want to be able to ski, go to either the U of C, or the U of A. Rocky mountains are 1 1/2 hrs away from Calgary and 4 hrs from Edmonton. Or go to UBC

honestly though i know a guy who lives here, and it's a beautiful place. good if you like hunting and fishing, but i don't think theres anywhere to ski/snowboard there. check it out on the interwebs though.

People here are pretty friendly and easy going for the most part...
There are a couple of ski hills here at Wentworth and Martock... They aren't anything to write home about, but they work...
And although we get cold spells (we had a week or two this year of constant -40C, factoring windchill) and can get some pretty bad weather in the winter, it's usually pretty good...

Ugh, go to the west coast, Alberta, or Ontario.
East coast is nice I guess, but just stupid cold winters with lots of snow, and no mountains to ski on.

They have bags of milk (not cartons)
They say "eh" every other word.
There are no cars, only snowmobiles, eh.
They live in igloos.
Their top of their heads are not attached to their body.
That's aboot it, eh.

Halifax Nova scotia, most bars per capita in the world. Laid back people with none of the big city paranoia, uptightness, Women are friendly and laid back. It is by the ocean and nice beaches. The air is fresh. I don't see anything wrong with that.
