Canada's expensive...

I'll just have to get around to that whole 'getting rich' thing before I come out there, I guess.

But at least none of it is in "real" money! The Canadian dollar is worth about a third less than the American dollar. So if you want to think about it that way, for about $800 US/month you can rent a decent 1 bedroom apartment.

And anyways, Toronto's much pricier than the rest of the country. And Montreal is dirt cheap. Go live in Montreal! It's very affordable and a good way to learn French with a Quebec acccent. I think the people I was staying with in Montreal were paying something like $700 Canadian a month for a 3 bedroom apartment, a really nice one. I'm making up the numbers, but you get the picture. Cheap, for the price of speaking French alot.
