> Canada is cold.

Not sure if you're being sarcastic here... In Vancouver, the summers are gorgeous without being sweltering. The winters are mild.

Affordability is definitely an issue, but if you work in tech then it shouldn't really be a problem.

Even if you're in tech... my impression is with Vancouver you get the high cost of living without the high salaries you find in SF.

Well... on the one hand, 50% of Canadians live south of Portland OR. On the other, the Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal corridor that contains most of those people is notable for sever swings in temperature. I lived a little ways northeast of Toronto for a few years, and survived temps of -20 and 38 C.

Very happy to be back out west (especially with the glorious weather we've been having this month).
