AI Thread Summary
Life in Canada, particularly in Vancouver, is appealing due to its beautiful scenery, clean air, and a liberal social environment that values personal freedoms, including the decriminalization of marijuana and acceptance of diverse lifestyles. The healthcare system, while not perfect, offers free treatment for non-life-threatening issues, and crime rates, including homicides, are relatively low compared to the U.S. Canadians are known for their friendliness, and the multicultural atmosphere, especially in cities like Toronto, enhances the quality of life. However, potential newcomers should be prepared for cold winters and the need for patience in healthcare wait times. Overall, Canada presents a welcoming alternative for those seeking a change from the current political climate in the U.S.

Granted 50$ is excessive, but keep in mind that you also come off as cheap with the complaining about the cost of the toll.

I'm not cheap but schocked at naivitee of people on PE island that they accepted this exhorbirant toll.
Management or owners of that bridge should be also ashamed of themselfs.
Things like this could only happen in Canada.This is best example of brainwashing and collective submission to the will of bigbiz and government.

Which bridge is more beautiful ? Duh !
Confdederation bridge in Canada, ugliest piece of crap ever constructed

And I'm sure the architects were going for something that looked pretty instead of serving a purpose. Honestly Tumor, they didn’t build that bridge to be beautiful. If you can think of a more attractive, cheaper bridge that’s able to span 13km over water that filled with massive chunks of ice then please, enlighten us.
As for the toll, last time I checked it was about $38 Canadian that you only had to pay once when you left the island.


Your arguments against Canada are sooo ridiculous. Have you even given some thought as to why no one else on this forum agrees with you?

Confederation Bridge is one of the greatest feats of engineering in the world. 38 bucks does not really seem like that much.

To take a car over the ferry from Victoria to Vancouver it costs like 60 bucks each way.

They should make that bridge more beautiful,it will stand there for hundreds of years,and I only guess here but it cost to build was comparable with Millau viaduct.Or even better,instead of going the cheap Canadian way,why not build tunnel like Japanese or Europeans are doing.
Sorry about that toll, I was adding also the provincial and federal taxess to it, that would make about 50$, but maybe taxess don't apply here.
CHECK? you ask me why no one else os sharing my view of Canada hmm...maybe you are all brain washed?Just kidding :smile: :smile: :smile:
