Notes from the Suburbs
For the first time in my life, I am living in a true suburb and in a new house. I have spent the past week completing a move to one of Toronto's suburbs and I offer the following preliminary observations:
- There is a Boston Pizza for every 100 residents
- There is no Starbucks
- There is a farm across the street
- Globe and Mail delivery extends to Europe, but not Markham
- Any water use unleashes a Niagara-like torrent along the length of your living room ceiling

Have to like all the free parking though.
Are you going to by an SUV, now that you are a suburbanite?
How about the plethora of road hockey games?
I'm thinking either a pick-up truck or a Buick. Whatever carries the most fishing equipment.
Oddly, no road hockey games.
Hey Dave,
Was just checking my stats and found you as a referrer - congrats on the move. Are you permanently installed?
Go with the truck, and good job in picking a place close to the pizza parlor.
Brad - we're here as long as the CFO says we're here. With easy access to fishing and big box retail, I could stay here for an eternity.
