Re: Comptemplating Moving to Canada to Live Alone at Peace.
Let me take another stab at this... you've never travelled a day in your life (other than over the road and through the woods) and you've heard "horror" stories how some Canadian flag saved some dumb ass traveler from being ripped off or at the minimum... accused of being from the US. Oh no. The horror. You won't move. You don't have the balls to.

Alberta really is a nice spot. Plus if you work in I.T., oil and gas companies are everywhere.

And when you want to go on vacation go camping in BC, river rafting, rock climbing, ice glaciers sight seeing.

Alberta only has one sales tax.

5% every other province has like two or something I dunno.

Wikipedia quote

Economy
Main article: Economy of Alberta

Alberta's economy is one of the strongest in Canada, supported by the burgeoning petroleum industry and to a lesser extent, agriculture and technology. The per capita GDP in 2007 was by far the highest of any province in Canada at C$74,825. This was 61% higher than the national average of C$46,441 and more than twice that of some of the Atlantic provinces. In 2006 the deviation from the national average was the largest for any province in Canadian history.[47] According to the 2006 census,[48] the median annual family income after taxes was $70,986 in Alberta (compared to $60,270 in Canada as a whole).

The Calgary-Edmonton Corridor is the most urbanized region in the province and one of the densest in Canada. The region covers a distance of roughly 400 kilometres north to south. In 2001, the population of the Calgary-Edmonton Corridor was 2.15 million (72% of Alberta's population).[49] It is also one of the fastest growing regions in the country. A 2003 study by TD Bank Financial Group found the corridor to be the only Canadian urban centre to amass a U.S. level of wealth while maintaining a Canadian style quality of life, offering universal health care benefits. The study found that GDP per capita in the corridor was 10% above average U.S. metropolitan areas and 40% above other Canadian cities at that time.

The Fraser Institute states that Alberta also has very high levels of economic freedom and rates Alberta as the freest economy in Canada,[50] and the second freest economy amongst U.S. states and Canadian provinces.[51]

Alberta is the strongest province in Alberta, were holding this damn country together.

We have 2 CFB's (Canadian Forces) and 1 Air Force base with plenty of F-16's.

And lots of gun totters.

Life is hard, but you can make it big here.

In a couple of years if you don't get fucked up on drugs you can have a nice house and a new truck/car.
