    I took more shit from Canadian Customs agent during one connection in Toronto than I took in 20 flights into Montreal. That, and the bus ride from one terminal to the other took forever.

    That's all I've seen of Toronto, the airport; I'm sure the rest of the city is fabulous.

    I deal with Customs people on a regular basis.

    Most of them are OK people but you get the odd one--and I lump the American and Canadian ones together in this--who had a fight with their wife last night, didn't get laid or some guy cut him off on the way to work.

    So he/she has decided that they are going to make the next person's life absolutely fucking miserable.

    You got one.

    Oh, and never argue with them. You will never, ever, ever win.

    I'll tell you this much, Toronto has nothing on Halifax. By far Halifax is ten times better than Toronto, the only knock against Halifax is a small journalism market.

    I grew up on the West Coast and spent several years in Montreal. I came to Toronto expecting to hate it and guess what ... I friggin' love it here. Great city, great people. Wouldn't move back to Vancouver if you paid me.

    Also, one other thing about Toronto. The people are rude there (except the people I know from there).
    Going into stores, restaurants whatever....they are so snobbish and boy, they can pick out a Maritimer quickly.

    Surprisingly JR, I don't own one. I would never be caught dead wearing one...tacky, distasteful and the most hidieous ugliest thing I have ever seen created.

    Yeah but they keep you dry when you're out on the lobster boats. :)

    I'd rather be wet than put on that god awful looking thing.

    Well, you could always adapt it into the Mary Quant circa 1965 look:
