PART TWO: I had lived in ON for almost 20 years, and at the end, a 20 minute commute to work took 3-4 hours any given day, AND cost me around $300.00 to add insult to injury....and GOD HELP us if ONE drop of RAIN feel from the sky or EGAD...a flake of snow fell....THAT was a major emergency...and couple that with ScarTown...and the infestation of everything that is WRONG on God's green Earth...(I didn't live there, I lived in Whitby, ON, but I worked in Scarborough)....People were ignorant to the point of absolute and utter stupidity....and companies there run modern day sweatshops, because God help you if you (the front line worker) don't kiss the ass of every one in management who thinks they're going to 'inherit' the company someday, so they think they MUST run it like a jail...though prisoners DO have more RIGHTS, don't they, thanks to wonderful OTTAWA!!!! And let's see...my son actually had a GUN put to his head one night by a bunch of hoodlums who were out for fun that night...and nearly got his head kicked in at one of the local pubs one night with my son in law and NOT ONE person came to his AID...not ONE,except my son in law....and God FORBID the thought of NOT locking one's doors..in fact, I had SIX locks on mine, Bryan, and everytime I went out, I locked THREE of them, so if anyone was trying to break in and pick the locks, I was fine..because they were actually LOCKING three of them at all times....see, how our good sense of humor makes up prevail even in the worse of situations? YIPPERS!!! Anyway, I digress.....
I ended up buying a beautiful, majestic 5000+ square foot B&B in Carbonear....and I got THREE quarters of the money to do so by selling my TOWNHOUSE in Whitby...so tell me who's SMART, huh, laddie? And I NOW run out each and every day and kiss the ground I can now freely WALK on....it's not a concrete jungle...neighbours and townsfolk DO care....and believe it or not, we even mange to SURVIVE...oh my, that must hurt your feelings SO much, Bryan....but not only do we survive, we THRIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And we don't turn into nasty bullies who 'hide' behind their computer and write crap about a place they've never even seen, and right now, I doubt if you'd WANT to be seen there, because believe it or not, we DO take these things seriously, even when it does come from the mouths of a babe or idiot like you...SO, that being said, I'd suggest you settle down now and sit in your car cursing and fuming at all the gridlock around you...make sure you BREATHE DEEPLY now so you can suck all of that POLLUTION into your lungs and body...and just continue to get nastier and nastier as each year passes, and THEN, take out your passive aggressive ANGER on a small town in Newfoundland which wouldn't mop our STREETS with the likes of you, if you WERE a brush!
Enjoy life as much as you can, and never, ever worry about us Newfoundlander's...we've survived much more scathing attacks than this and will again, I'm sure, but the strange thing is, Bryan...if we ARE so horrible in this area, how come my B&B is almost fully booked already for Summer 2010 ALREADY? AND, YES, I AM helping the unemployment situation, my son...don't you worry now...I've already got ONE employee, whom I plan to WORSHIP and treat like gold, unlike the masochistic managers "I" had in Ontario...AND I'm even thinking of buying a SECOND Property here and hiring even MORE people...and we'll be living it right up!!! I only thank God I don't have to live around dweebs like you anymore who are so ignorant and brain washed that you'd sell your poor old Grannie for a cup of Starbucks Coffee, cause I'm sure you're too IMPORTANT to drink Timmie's like WE do...oh yeah, NEWSFLASH..we even have a TIMMIE'S here...
God bless Newfoundland, I say...and cheer up...just because you're nasty and miserable, you are NOT going to impact us and the way WE live, so get OVER yourself, kiddo....and try and grow a brain in the meantime! Though that's hard to do among the sheep-els!! And I'd lay bets to say YOU live in Ottawa...or some OTHER sewer that lets the garbage workers go on strike for three months and at the end of it, the RATS are bigger than the people living there...so have FUN, Bryan..and don't take it to heart now...because WE despise you every bit as much as YOU despise us...and make sure you Twit (Oh, gosh, I meant Twitter) and Tweet and do all things neat...because YOU are a prime example of why this country IS in the mess it's in!
IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PART ONE: Gee, GASP...Ottawa ranked NUMBER ONE...Ohmigod, what a surprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With it's merry band of bandits robbing, raping and pillaging Newfoundland as they've done since we joined Confederation, I guess it's best to stay on the side of the 'Big Boy's from Up-ALong" is it, Bryan? As far as I'm concerned, you're as full of hot air, as they are!!! Have you EVEN visited NL? Because you might be surprised at what you find...and after writing what you have, metinks you're better off staying where you ARE...in dim-dumb land, with the rest of the sheep-els you obviously hang out with!
I moved 'home' to the Bay Roberts AREA. last fall..not Bay Robert's itself, but a neighbouring town, simply because the place I bought happened to be located here in Carbonear....so it was no personal grievance against Bay Roberts...AND, I was never happier to leave a place when I boarded that plane in ON to head "home" to NL....I swear, I'm pretty sure I danced a jig!
