Toronto or Montreal I'd say. Calgary is good for a strong local scene, but as as major tours go, Toronto & Montreal seem like the best.

Bands like to skip where I am...they don't seem to think that Ottawa matters at all...sure, don't come and play at the capital of our country or anything...you'll find that a lot of them will skip Montreal for some reason...

Well, ottawas population is less than hundred thousand. on top of that, you can walk from one end to the other in less than an hour. it is a fairly tiny place. where as toronto, and GTA has about 6 million people while montreal has over 1.5 million people... so going to ottawa, no offence, is kinda like going to a village of less than 20 people when you have visted the major cities of US where the population is well in the 10s.

The population of Ottawa is 1.2 million dude...you've obviously never been to Ottawa...NO OFFENSE lol...its a major city...and I don't really understand your English in that last bit...we do get a lot of bands but the big tour legs do tend to miss Ottawa...

/\ my bad, you're right. in 2006 the population was 812,129. i for some reason read that as 81, 212 and i have visited ottawa few times. i still say its fairly tiny comparing to toronto. definitely smaller comparing to some of the suburbs surrounding toronto as well.

Ottawa for sure is tiny compared to Toronto...its still a big enough city...there isn't all that much to do in Ottawa in comparison to Toronto...and as far as suburbs go, I find Toronto's suburbs to be completely fucking ridiculous...like, what the fuck is up with Vaughan? That place is just house after house after house after house after house after house of the same building...Vaughan is a goddamn eyesore...and then there's Oshawa...no offense to anyone who lives there but Oshawa is is a goddamn rundown place full of rundown people...and then Scarbaria is really full of crime and just a nasty place to live in...Hamilton smells like shit...I have nothing bad to say about Etobicoke or Mississauga...if you were gonna live in the suburbs of Toronto, it would have to be either Etobicoke or Missisauga...North York is completely old and run down... But there are only a few venues in Ottawa that support the metal scene...there used to be more but they that heavy metal wasn't worth it and switched over to more popular music type atmospheres...

Im in the Mississauga area...I like it. Its becoming crowded but not so bad. Never really visited Vaughan much...but Ive heard the same thing. Its just full of the same looking houses. I used to live in Scarborough...it used to be nice but now its like you said....just full of crime and one nasty place to be. Don't think Ive ever been to Oshawa. North York is a pretty bland and boring place as well. Most of Hamilton is a shit hole but I cant say Ive been there enough. Brampton is a place I don't like. Thats where I went to school and still go there for one class and I have 2 good friends who live there. Its like Mississauga but not as good.

-_- I live right next to Ottawa (Gatineau in QC) and frankly I must admit ... the metal scene sux, I mean they're 4 times larger than Gatineau and we got more Metal heads than Ottawa LOL... but Montreal's the place to be if you want awesome metal shows.

"Correcting misinformation" It's a downward spiral. There's a mountain of reasons as to why Harper is a totally inept leader.

18.03.2011 - 18:29 Written by SilentScream on 15.03.2011 at 18:06 I wouldn't disagree. Most of Alberta would, you should hear what some of the moronic rednecks say about you. Some of the conversations I've had with people regarding Quebec have been jaw-droppingly childish. I even heard one full-grown adult recommend we build one big trench all the way around Quebec. Seriously, I think 80% of the Albertan population is by technical standards, mentally handicapped. We all think Quebec is entirely FLQ separatist assholes.

Oh oh oh! be sure to check out this website! http://shitharperdid.ca/ It's a very nice website. The hits on that website have been growing so rapidly that many people are saying it might actually be a huge game-changer in the Federal Elections. Be sure to visit it before Harper shuts it down for supplying "misinformation". Vote, people! Maybe if voter turn-out is actually decent this year, we might get a capable leader. May 2nd, bitches.

I really, really, REALLY hope that someone other than Harper gets in during our next election. I don't care if it's the Liberals, the NDP, the Green Party just as long as it's not him. Most of the time I'm pretty apathetic about politics here in Canada, but Harper is fucking up so much that I have really taken notice. And yes, that website is awesome.

Fuck yeah you guys are right, can't stand the mother fucker. I hope NPD will actually get its chance to lead. Better be them than the two other cock suckers who fucked us over for years.

25.04.2011 - 18:57 Written by Guib on 25.04.2011 at 18:20 The way I see it, we're gonna get fucked one way or another. NDP is certainly the wisest choice if you want the most minimal political ass-rape. Harper has fucked up so much it's unbelievable that he's got a looming majority.
