For more serious golf days. I have many other friends who invite me to their clubs uptown where I am. Plus paying courses etc. So it's fun in the summer. But these couple of years we haven't been able to golf often. We've been on lockdown more or less. In the summers, I travel to Europe often, and this year in November I was thinking of going to Australia with a friend that has family there. Last year I cancelled a trip to Japan, Thailand, and Hong Kong. I like watching Olympic events. But I'll get to travelling soon, once this covid situation is under control.
Toronto is a great city. You will love it. I'm surprised you're not living here by now. We have close to 1.1 Million Italian Canadians here. The 1.3 Mill., Chinese outnumbered the Italians here recently, in the city, a couple of years ago. I like my enviroment here when I'm here. But this lockdown has changed all of this. I used to travel for about a month to London evey summer just for the culture, partying, and social events. London is one of the best cities in the world. Even better than New York IMHO.
If you ever get fed up with the pride and prejudice, the provincial borders are open to you if you like. I'm sure you know that. Once you get older, it gets harder to move though, because of kids, family, friends etc.
I hope you are doing well there, I haven't seen you post as much recently. I just thought you were busy maybe at work. I hope this SS show is almost over for us with the Bomber. I can see things changing for the better. Q2 will tell the tale. GL

Toronto is great but I only stopped by briefly on my way to Niagara ... hopefully one day I'll get to see more of it ... GLTA

It's the only course right in the city, but it's only nine holes. Because the land in the city is very expensive. The wine is phenominal. The membership is 25K a year but it's worth it. if Club wants wants come along he's welcome as well. Btw. I wouldn't poke one of those mlle's even if they begged for it. Had some. They don't know if they're coming or going. No fan of the gangs either.

quote=BBDB859]Hey Bicente.
When your done with Quebec, and you decide to come to Ontario. Let me know so I can have a coffee with you here. I live at the North end of the city, (Bayview and Steeles area). We'll probably still own this company's shares. So we'll discuss the share price daily. I know the city inside out, and we can discuss our Bomber shares daily.
BTW. We had to live through another cashburn in Q1.

quote=clubhouse19]Doesn't this province have anything better to do as it keeps on shooting itself in the foot.
it's not enough they have 2-3 parties each looking for a reason to exist
and looking for trouble and now want to add another one?? Now they want exclusive french communication with the government where there are 4 million pure laine in a sea of anglophones within north america. Only in Quebec can we be so navel gazing and be blind to what is around. Wonder what communications with the American government will be like if corresponded to in french...file 13 ??
While the whole world is becoming multilingual here in Quebec they rather try to be "Ont c'est faire mais seulement en francais " what a f'en joke
