Damn, electricity rates are nearly double what I pay in BC.

This thread is honestly making me wonder if I should move. Vancouver is sure beautiful, I've just always assumed I couldn't afford it.

Usually when people say a place is expensive they mean housing/rent. That certainly applies to Vancouver and to nearly everywhere else that anyone wants to live.

Yeah. And by that measure I've always said Alberta is underrated. In some way's it's better, in some ways it's worse, but it's not anachronistic like people seem to imagine, and property is just way cheaper. If Vancouver actually works out to the same price once you factor other things in, though, it seems awesome when I'm out there.
