We don't have any smog tests in my province because we only have a million people
and land mass the size of england and scotland. We have cheap public insurance as well. We end up with a lot of beaters though. It is not unusual to see 54Ford trucks hauling firewood. In most places they would be streetrods. It is probably the only place in north america you can still find classic muscle cars in a barn.

It is -30 during the day and -40 at night and that is without counting windchill.
It is also not great for job opertunities or shopping but if you are into the outdoors and hunting and fishing it is definitly one of the best places to live.
It is VERY cheap to live here though , a nice house in a village is less than
10 grand and free health care as well as government subsidized phone,insurance
and power. I don't spend enough time in the bush though but I will this year.
I would love for some of my yard dogs to visit especially in hunting season.

Unsub,
every place has pros & cons.. that's for sure.
I've been to BC & Alberta.. some of the most beautiful scenery i've experienced.
Gonna have to try making my way up to Saskatchewan some day..
Cheers!

I can live with the cold and everything else for that matter. My only issue would be that I could not have my handguns there.

Unsub has my dream bike! My CBR 900RR had the same 919 motor, but I really like the naked look!

Guys, I don't know too much about bikes, but is the Yamaha R1 still the pinnacle of Motorcycles?

i've lost track of bikes like that. i used to be a pretty big fan of the hayabusa and before that the TL1000S.
