shameful
But most are slow cities. No sophistication, same old vehicles, same old speed, same old accessories, i don't find any thing new here... no much varieities in tv, camera, electronic gadgets, electrical appliacnces, even the whole canada seems to have only one type of bath -tub and bath room shower design. where as in Asia things are much faster and sophisticated. I find canada much poor in taste, sub-standard and shameful interms of advancement.

Pardon me, but why are you here then? Why not live in exciting Hong Kong?
Also what do you mean by "same old speed", "same old vehicles"? Could you please be specific as to which vehicle you would like to see that you can't see in Canada? Also what exciting new speeds would you like to drive at?
Seriously, how much fun is it to live in a country you hate so much? I don't get it.

where exactly do you shop? I was shopping for a 3ccd dv camcorders and found all the latest ones ranging from 1000-5000 cad @ ordinary consumer electronic stores. I was able to actually comparision shop for these prosumer camcorders by visiting different outlets. Heck, even found a 3ccd camcorder @ 'the brick'.

I'd also like to explore new tub designs. How about one that stands sideways on the ceiling so that you have to hang on to it instead of standing in it?? How about square wheels next? I'm sure they'd work if you attach a flux capacitor.
I just might be onto something here.

For Electronic things Faltu is right. Here no much choice you have to buy.
Just visit and compare website of best buy of USA and Canada.

I don't disagree. Overall, I find that for shopping, the U.S. is much better than Canada. There is more choice there and its cheaper, no question.
But that's just the way it is, its a much bigger economy and a significantly richer country. How does it make Canada shameful? And what's all this about "same vehicles and same speeds and same bathtubs"? And why repeat the same stuff over and over again in all your posts?

not just bath tubs, but showers suck as well... i long for those glorious days back in india where we would heat up water in a pot on the stove and then dump it into a plastic bucket, get undressed and sit on a wodden stool and bathe... that is, if it was a "water" day, which i think was every alternate day for 2 hours in the morning where everyone would scramble to fill whatever containers they could get their hands on...
ah the good ol days...
