Lovely how you said Calgarian first and then Canadian... you think you're better than us people from the prairie, eh? well, you are probably right
No, darned I've been living here for too long!
I don't know about... wherever in Sask. you live Valier but over here EVERYONE seems to hate this city... then they go ice-skating, or they play hockey, bike around or hike during summer.... and of course, there are a few (admittedly not many, but probably enough) bars and such. I think it's the small town mentality... people want to be in big, busy metropolies rather than easygoing small cities. Personally, I love it here, much better than NYC-sized Buenos Aires.
Disclaimer: My use of the word "eh" pre-dates my immigration to Canada. Eh IS a word and I've been using it since I can recall.
Edit: And to answer Valier's last question, the weather has behaved yesterday and today. It rained!! that's something you don't see very often in December. And today it's zero degrees!!! I couldn't be happyer.
