| 187.1 | Go for Vancouver | TRCA03::SANDHU | | Tue Jun 06 1989 09:47 | 13 |
| That's a tough one especially since the criterion is cost/house
cost/jobs. A year or so ago, Vancouver would seem to win it in the
cost/house department while Toronto takes it in the cost/jobs arena.
But Vanc. is no longer such a cheap place to live. House prices
have soared in recent years. Toronto meantime is not quite the mecca
for jobs as it was a couple of years ago. So, maybe we should add
some other factors in chosing a place to live. Vanc. is great for
the natural scenary, bring up a family etc. For jobs, it would all
depend on the qualifications of this person immigrating from the
foreign country. Nevertheless, let me recommend Vancouver as better
of the two.

| 187.2 | Choose Me, eh! | KAOM25::TOMKINS | This MIND left blank INTENTIONALLY | Tue Jun 06 1989 17:09 | 10 |
| I vote for Ottawa.
Ottawa has a very diverse cultural base. Peoples of many different
nationalities make Ottawa their home. The housing is less expensive
than Vancouver, Toronto and maybe Montreal.
From a job perspective, well, Canada's economy is not booming anywhere
in particular these days. In Ottawa, the principal employer is the
Federal Government, although they have been laying off for the past
few years. There are many High Technology firms here, including
our favourite company, DIGITAL.

| re .2
You might have a look at today's Toronto Star ..... Toronto's
unemployment rate is 3.8%, the lowest in Ontario and Canada. Of
course with this wonderfully low figure comes 0.1% or less vacancy
rates, high housing prices and traffic chaos.....

I don't believe that such information should be posted here. Perhaps
you could specify what information you would like, and we'll post
a reply in the introduction note.
