I went back to Ontario for 2 days & I notice the glaring differences between West vs East. Just offhand
1. Food is so much cheaper and better in Ontario. I was shocked to buy a Donair in Waterloo for 5 bucks. Out here the same thing is 8 dollars. Not alot, but when everything costs more well....
2. Parking spots are bigger. I had wondered if it was me...but the parking spots seemed small here. They are indeed narrower, which is retarded because there are alot of SUV's
3. Calgary has WAY more trucks and SUV's than Ontario.
4. It felt great to drive 125 on the 401. On the Deerfoot on Friday and people were driving 100 in the fast lane. Made me realize it's why I live downtown and don't drive.
5. Humidity and elevation. The air in Ontario is thicker, heavier, but humidity is nice on the skin.
6. House prices. In 2001, Calgary and Waterloo Region house prices were the same. Today, a townhouse in Waterloo seemed like a bargain at 165K. In fact it seemed like a dream. Out here the same place would be 400K. Keep in mind the prices were pretty much the same 6 years ago.
