If Britain were a U.S. state, it would be the second-poorest

Haha my mistake! I'm from a working class background but we're slowly making moves, the pressure on the generation I'm in to succeed is painful :emma:

 

I'm planning to make the move to London after university in two years. It is hard to be inner city and make it work but the gays have Soho, I'll do some sofa surfing whilst making ends meet :rip:

 

It's not too bad if you share with others. Almost everyone I know in central London has to do that or just live in a really tiny flat. I want to move back there one day too but the costs are stopping me.

ok it's cute all those book facts an stuff, but i spent almost half a year to cross all Canada country from Atlantic to Pacific, i'm the best judge to know where are the richest and the poorest. Toronto was the most expensive city by far, restaurant, clothes, hotel, etc were very high comparatively to Montreal and other eastern cities. I don't say Calgary and Edmonton are poor cities, far from that, it was expensive too, but Toronto is the heart of Canada, the business city, it's normal the life cost is higher. just stop acting like you're the official economist of Canada, take your bags, travel all Canada during half a year and comeback with real-life facts. :coffee:

really, I mean i'm from Canada, we are a wealth country too, but **** London was so expensive it was almost ridiculous

im pretty sure statistics speak better than ur perception based on what u saw

For one, Vancouver is the most expensive city to live in not Toronto...

Secondly... Toronto will obviously be expensive because its a large city and people want to live there but that doesnt make it more prosperous.

Ive lived in Toronto and now i live in Brampton. Guess what? There doesnt seem to be much of a difference on average incomes here. But there definitely is a huge gap in cost of living :shrug:

Toronto may be headquarters to the big banks, and have many of the high corporate jobs but i still dont see how u can call Toronto the wealthiest part of Canada.

And tones of ppl struggle there. Poverty is insane. And even average people struggle to pay those insane rents and mortages but they like the city so they attempt to stay

Toronto is really large and has large and unique companies and that gives off an exxagerated perspective of how wealthy it actually is :MANiCURE:

How? Is "poor" a harsh word?

If I say "Africa is poor" am I bashing Africa?

Again, the title is taken FROM the article.

 

Yeah, because that must be an indicator that it isn't harsh :lmao: 

 

I could find you an article where people favor the death of gays. Is then less harsh as well?

 

You're obviously not an American or else you'd know that the post is one of the most prestigious sources of unbiased news in the country.

Well this article proves otherwise :later:

I'll believe that when I see it!

 

Keep telling yourself that though, maybe one day you'll write like English is your first language.

Your gifs are repetitive and your blatant lack of common courtesy does not enhance how you come across as a person. I hope you are completely different in real life, not just for my sake, but for the world's.

I used the same gifs because of the repetitiveness of the thread in general. That "blatant lack of common courtesy" kind of came up when someone tried to insult me as you should have been able to see from the post you quoted?

I like how you didn't answer the first two questions.
