[Rockheart]

The list is pretty suprising.
Toronto is 47
I think Montreal was 147 or something.
Top ten cities

1. Ottawa
2. Burlington
3. Kingston
4. Halifax
5. Regina
6. Brandon
7. Fredericton
8. Edmonton
9. Red Deer
10. Winnipeg

There are alot of changes in the last few years.

This is far from the top 10 list of Shemale Cities in canada.
However ladies, if you are looking for somewhere to move, this list is a good example of where things will be in the future.

[nighthawk590]

1. Toronto
2. Montreal
3. Vancouver
4. Ottawa
5. Hamilton
6. Calgary
7. Edmonton
8. Winnipeg
9. London
10. Regina and/or Saskatoon?

It pretty much goes by population density really.

Ok...Kingston is Jail capital of Canada (sorry Rants), Regina...super hot or super cold...Edmonton and winnipeg were recently some of the worst cities for crime or murder....

I often wonder about these lists.

BTW, on the transsexual citiy list. If you are ranking them by population density,

1	1	Toronto (Mississauga)	Ontario	CMA	5,583,064	5,113,149	9.2
2	2	Montreal (Laval)	Quebec	CMA	3,824,221	3,635,556	5.2

Well Quebec has to be thrown out of the list because there is barely any Shemales that actually live there, so it is far from a Shemale destination for whatever reason.

Kitchener etc. is just a population density but not an actual large City with a distinct core.
I used to live around there and municipal boundaries are pretty spread out, it is virtually GTA.

London is smaller but it services a larger population in southern Ontario where there isn't much else.

Regina is probably the best choice for number 10.
It is a full fledged fast growing city that is right on the Trans Canada highway, Main rail line and Major Air routes.
It is also a capital city and has huge government employment, so income is above average and amenities are many.
Even though it is only about 225,000, it services the entire south of Saskatchewan so economically that is up to 500,000 people.
The city will probably double in population over the next 20 years too.

WOW!!!

That's whacked..

I've been most everywhere in Canada including way up north..

Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast are unmatched..

Hands down.. no contest..

The most beautiful place in Canada..

Also the warmest place in the country too..

Simple....Language Barrier. Clients will hang up on you if you don't speak french. The rest of us that do speak the language do very well in Quebec City. Like Mississauga which is a big travel location for the ts community, Ste Foy is the same, with no local girls, but girls travelling at all times. Good to work, but I wouldn't live there. Girls that find Montreal to be a tough city, will think Quebec City is Hell on Earth.

But just for the record...I make more money in Quebec City then in Mississauga.

WOW!!!


Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast are unmatched..


The most beautiful place in Canada..

A lot of factors go into deciding this. Beauty is only one of them. Crime rate, education, quality of life, etc all come into play here.

This is why I found it weird that the cities I mentioned before were on the list.

If you don't do it you will never move on to the next grade!

[Canadiankrahe]

I think that the crime rate in ottawa is alot higher then its reported, theres all that political and election fraud happening in ottawa that should push Burlington up to the top of the list. Of course Burlington has some of the worst traffic anywhere I've been.

Burlington

Im moving just outside of burlington next year.I had enough of Toronto

Beauty was not in the lists of factors but weather was:

Hmm..

well I have always appreciated the lack of density here on the island..

Eagles flying outside my window and the woodpeckers bugging the dogs..

swallows nesting in my house..

On my street the telephone poles have built in bird nests which the birds use..

Beauty, nature and quality are the top factors in my world..

Besides.. the world is so small.. in 20 minutes I can be in Downtown Vancouver..

I want to enjoy where I live..

I hear sirens (fire or ambulance) here maybe 2-3 times a month..

Quality of life is the most important for me..

and you cannot beat the air quality here..

It's rough.. Oh and it hardly freezes.. lol

Growth here on the island rivals that in Calgary..

Honestly I prefer that people don't move here any faster than they already are..

While the cost of living may be higher here on the island I'm fine with it..

Yeah, I love BC too, lived there for years. The main problem is affordability there. The housing market is artificially high, and there's that damn HST. Really hard to get ahead there for the average working stiff.

If the housing market at least matched the average income, I'm sure the lower mainland would have been on the list.

We have a 3000 square foot Lyndelle Cedar Home on a 12,000 square foot lot in the city of Nanaimo..

Cost $300k..

But ya.. you should pay a little more to live in paradise..

Jobs here suck too.. If you're a good entrepreneur it's not bad..

I've always been the employer not the employee..
