I have to tell you that my experience in Calgary was not like this. Girls were more interested in black guys more than latin guys, even a black guy that was 40lbs overweight was doing a lot better than I was with girls.

I played the "I'm from Miami, parents from Spain angle" and although it raised excitement, it was not enough excitement that allowed escalation to sex.

The Canadian girls that seem to really get big goo-goo eyes for me seem to be from Montreal. Don't know why but Montreal girls truly show me love when it comes to Canada.

I have not been to Montreal yet, but i cannot wait to get there when it warms up in 2012.

I was even told that being from Miami was a surefire panty-dropper, nope.

Well Calgary is a different story, they call it cow town. Even a co-worker use to live there and said they should do nuclear testing there. lol

I think even in Toronto you would be alright, but I would say that I am from DR with a place in Miami. Fuck these bitches are dying to get out of the cold and a place in Miami is DHV to the max.

People in Quebec (Montreal) are ga ga about Florida, so I can see why you would do well there. There is a place in Florida that they call little Quebec, Hollywood I believe.
Montreal had to be done for 2012, I think it is a world class city for girls.

Mixx (and any other Americans visiting Alberta), you would do better in Calgary if you were from, or at least lied and said you were from; Palm Springs, Scottsdale, Phoenix or Las Vegas. This is where all the rich people from BC and Alberta own winter homes and where they vacation when it gets too cold, Miami is too foreign to them, they don`t get it!

Saying you`re from Miami will impress the ladies of the east MUCH MORE, this is where people from Ontario, Quebec and Maritimes own their winter homes, which is why I`m sitting in a retirement community in Port Richey Florida now with my folks, surrounded by a bunch of geriatric pisstanks getting wasted lol!

Mixx - come to Toronto instead in the spring/summer. The talent is here they just think they are all that, coming from Miami I am sure you will know what to do. Tdot has a huge latin salsa scene plus some pretty good clubs.

Yes you are originally from DR but have a condo in Miami. [Image: smile.gif]

Are you sure? London, ON is mostly college/university game with all the action centred around parties and college pubs. I don't think that's the best scene for a guy in his mid 30s.

If you can speak french go outside of Montréal, they are easy and better lookin . Especially sagnenay it's like 3-4 girls for 1 man in this area . Quebec city it's golden . I haven't been to much outside of Quebec exept Ottawa, Toronto,Wasaga Beach and Vancouver . Quebec city have the best ratio for women I ever seen . I've been to Miami,Nyc and Cuba and In my opinion they look better. Well Miami were very hot too but, many of them were not from Miami so it's tough to judge .

Alfonzo: ferme ta gueule! just joking...I was gonna keep la Saguenay a secret and you went and blew my cover!!!!!!

As all men from Quebec know...this region north of Quebec, is the Newfoundland of French Canada, the men go down south, or out west to work, leaving an INSANE ratio of women-to-men up there in Chichoutimi-Jonquiere-Alma area, those who know, KNOW!

This is home to "Les Bluets" or blueberries as they are colloquially known, and they have a reputation as being big time partiers and hard drinkers, when you order a beer up there, they serve you "une grosse", or a 40 ouncer!!!

Anyway, I've been busy getting tanked with El Mechanico and celebrating Xmas with the folks here in Florida, but I will soon bust out a data sheeton Quebec and thE women here.....a bientot mes amis! A+

Again, I'm not a Manitoba expert (where are you guys?? Isn't Ripsaw from there? Bust out some data homie!!!) and all I know about Flin Flon is:

-Its a very remote, small, isolated mining community (BAD)
-Its where the Canadian government grows (or used to anyway) their medical marijuana in abandoned mine shafts (cool!)
-Its where the legendary Broad Street Bully (Philadelphia Flyers of the 1970's NHL hockey) BOBBY CLARKE is from but I can almost guarantee ol Bobby doesn't spend too much time there any more!

It also probably has a very high native population (like most northern Prairie province towns).

YOU FISH, me too!! Love fishing.....if you wanna catch a big fat wall eye or pike, go there! But not specifically to game women, however, like all small Canadian towns, the girls will definitely be DTF, easy going and VERY approachable, being from away is big time DHV!

Did somebody say my name....?

If you want to go fishing Lothario then by all means go to Flin Flon (or anywhere else in Manitoba... "The land of 100,000 Lakes"), but don't go for women or nightlife. Yes, there is alot of native american indians up there. No, they wouldn't take kindly to you hitting on their girls. If you are white then you will be the minority, and the white guys that live up there are hardcore blue collar guys that may or may not be friendly to you.
I'm good friends with a guy who grew up in Flin Flon and moved down here for school. The first time he got stabbed by an indian was when he was 8 yrs old at elementery school... and it wasn't the last. On the other hand... I know a white guy who grew up in northern Saskatchewan and he loves to tell the story about how he fucked 7 native girls in the same night... at the same party... in front of each other. He basically just did the rounds... he was the only guy there. Indian girls are just like any other "hood" girls. They're down to fuck but you have to be tough if you want their respect/get in their pants. I say "tough" and not "alpha" because I read some guys commenting the forum saying shit like "real alphas control themselves and avoid a fight" ect... that attitude wouldn't get you anywhere.
I think if you want to bang an Indian girl you need to get her alone fast because the bucks aren't gonna stand for it... understand that they very much still have a "tribe" mentality. They fight in packs and if you happen to win the first battle they WILL be back with their bros... Anyways... enough about that...
For the record... i do have my Pocahontas flag... but she went to highschool with me and her family was solid middle class.

Now... if you want second tier Manitoba, then that's Brandon, my hometown. Two hours from Winnipeg, right on the TransCanada highway, it's Manitoba's second largest city (65,000 ppl). Brandon and Winnipeg have a dinstinctly different feel, Brandon is what I would call a 'big small town'. Southern Manitoba is solid farmland and Brandon has a good University and a good Trades College. So this is where all the farm girls/small town girls come when they turn 18 to go to school. There are alot of cute girls in Brandon... think girl next door/down to earth country girl. Probably alot like you would find in the American midwest... but less fat chics. If she came from a small town and wasn't raised in Brandon then she will be friendly and polite, no bitch shield at all. Some are down to fuck and some aren't. It's a pretty small town so they have their reputation consider. If your from out of town then that could help you (they know that your leaving). Get her alone.
Brandon University has a really good music program and there are alot of Asian girls come here to go to school. You never see them out though... theyre just here to study...I've never had any luck.
There is getting to be a high Latino population in Brandon. A certain employer is importing workers from Columbia, Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala... bring them on as far as I'm concrned... I love the booty.
Latin dudes you will probably not have a leg up here. The Latin guys that are here have come for low class work and the white girls will probably assume your one of them. I could be wrong though...

There are two main nightclubs in town right now and they attract a slightly different crowd... although alot of people bounce back and forth.
-"Houstons Nightclub" is where the younger/girl next door crowd hangs out. You probably already know that 18 is the drinking age in Canada... if your looking for a fresh cutie then Houstons is the place... it's very busy on Thursday's for some reason, always been the place to go. Friday and Saturday are hit or miss.
-"The Roadhouse" at CanAd Inns hotel is where the older crowd hangs out and it's a little more raunchy. If your looking for tall black boots and fishnet stockings then this is the place. Busy on Friday and Saturday. Go early or you could end up spending a bit of time in line. I can sometimes get let in VIP cuz I dress well and most guys in Brandon... don't.

-"The Rock" is Brandons only strip club. If you come from a large city you would probably be dissapointed. There's one stage and a dancer comes out to dance about every 20 mins or so with nothing inbetween. The thing I like is that the girls aren't there to hustle you for lapdances or tips or drinks... they just dance for your entertainment then off they go. FYI, the Rock is the Hells Angels/ZigZag crew hangout. Dont fuck around.

-"The Tavern" is one of the lounges at CanAd Inns, it's a British style pub and usually busy during the week and early on weekend nights before everyone heads over to The Roadhouse.
-"Echo" is a lounge at the Royal Oak Inn... across the parking lot from Houstons. They have drink/appetizer specials on Thursdays so it's busy with people pre-drinking there before heading over to Houstons.
-I like the "Double Decker Tavern" downtown. It's where you'll find the hipster/granola girls. I'm not hipster... or granola... and that's why I like it. Walk tall with your chin up and you will get noticed. Guys will be friendly... be friendly back... and then fuck their girls... hehe
-"Clancy's" is a Irish style pub, also downtown. It can be hit or miss. Personally I don't really like it, but it can be good, expecially when they have live entertainment. It's one big open room with rows of tables and chairs, a few pool tables and a stage. Everyone sees your approaches so you can't be a machine without looking like a douche. The Double Decker on the other hand is a small pub but it has two floors with a few different rooms, with couches and shit. I like the Double Decker.

Theres quite a few other bars, lounges and semi-nightclubs... but this is a good start.

My advice would be to stay at Canad Inns. It's the nicest hotel in town, it's got one of the only two nightclubs... plus a good lounge. It's close to the center of town, but dont worry about distance, you can get anywhere in Brandon for a $10 or $15 cab ride. The Rock is right across the street. Canad Inns is also attatched to the hockey arena/convention center in town. Brandon has a good WHL hockey team so The Tavern and Roadhouse are crazy busy on the nights when they play. Also hitting up a hockey game is one of the only other things to do in town... if your so inclined.

Daygame might not be the best for you, theres only one mall and it's pretty small. I daygame while running errands so that means drugstore, grocery store, clothes shopping, paying bills ect...

As for game... I keep it low key and chill. This is a pretty small town after all. I dress well and I would advise you to also... girls around here don't see it that often. When I'm a visitor in a town like Brandon I put on a suit, go to the hotel bar and hit on the waitresses... play up the mysterious guy from out of town angle. It works for me eleswhere, it would work for you here.

You guys from big cities would get bored of Brandon easily. It's small, its pretty hick and theres not much to do except party on the weekends... but if you find yourself here then this might help. Drive out for a weekend if your in Winnipeg.

Over and Out.

Ripsaw, thanks for this data!

This is VERY solid info on the scene in the province of Manitoba, outside of Winnipeg. As he has suggested, this is Small Town Canada, and nothing you guys should consider visiting, unless you have some kind of small town white girl fetish, which you will easily bore of after 2-3 days, thats if you make it out alive after mingling with the locals, LOL!

Again, great contribution Ripsaw, BIG UP! Manitoba is the only Canadian province I've never been to and honestly, I have no desire to! Can you convince us otherwise? Can you expand on Lake Manitoba? I know theres nice cottage country there! Any Winnipeg info would be greatly appreciated as well!

I'm from Canada and I would say the rule for travelling here is to go pretty much anywhere OTHER THAN Toronto. The people there are lame, the girls aren't hot, and all the culture is artificial and imported from elsewhere, because let's face it, at the bottom it's just a boring banking town.

I agree and lets not forget that Canada is a logistical nightmare, its f'ing huge and everything is twice as expensive as the states!

Advice that I would give to anyone thinking about visiting Canada: pick an area or region that you think is cool do a combination trip there (visit multiple cities).

Eg: Montreal-Quebec City or Mtl-QC-Ottawa (MOntreal is also fairly close to Boston and NYC)

Vancouver-Victoria-Kelowna (Seattle is very close)

Calgary-Edmonton-Rocky Mountains (Banff, Lake Louise, Jasper,etc).

If you had to pick one area, I'd go with Montreal, hands down. Excellent combination of Canada's two founding peoples, French and English, lots of festivals, hot women, things to do like museums, art, etc.

Also, if you're an outdoor enthusiast, especially a big game hunting/fishing guy, ALL regions of Canada have something to offer!

Yeah, I'll tell you why you should come to Manitoba.
We have the best freshwater fishing in Canada, which makes it possibly the best in the world. We have some of the best waterfowl hunting in Canada... which makes it some of the best in the world. I can go to my parents land on the edge of Riding Mountain Park and hunt ducks, geese, grouse, deer, elk, moose, bear, coyotes, wolves and more...
You can canoe or kayak down one of our many great rivers... you can lose yourself for days in the backcountry on a quad, dirtbike, snowmobile or truck... I grew up doing this shit, and I love it. It's part of my soul. This is gods country scotian... gods country... lol... but seriously... theres more to life than just pussy.
Now don't get me wrong fellas, I like Brandon, and there's plenty of young cute pussy to be had... it's just a different game. It's best to keep a girl for a few months while you pick up some sly on the side and work on other girls for when your ready to trade in your number 1. I'm sure you guys understand that if you going around hitting on 3 new girls each day in a town this size then your going to get a reputation, fast. Everyone knows each other and everyone talks. You just can't do it.
As for Winnipeg... I can't help you much there. I avoid it for the most part and only go there for flights or if I need something. From what I know, it's just like most other large centers. Girls are easier... but theyre also bitchier/harder to approach. I honestly don't know much about the city... Winnipeg isn't my choice if I want to go to a larger center. I go farther away... I guess the the grass is always greener and all that shit...
Gimli is the main resort area in the Lake Winnipeg/Lake Manitoba area, an hours drive north of Winnipeg. It was originally settled by Icelandic immigrants and has a strong Scandanavian vibe. Tourism is the main economy now, aside from commercial fishing. Interesting to note that the worlds supply of Crown Royal Whiskey is also distilled at Gimli. Now theres something that should put you on the map. Theres lots of tourists there during the summer so it would be fun for a weekend or two. I've only been there once and I was young.
Cottage country for my part of Manitoba is Clear Lake in Riding Mountain Park. It's a very nice/pristine lake and the townsite has class. Population around 5000 in the summer time. Theres a couple lounges and a bar that are busy on the weekends, especially a long weekend. Clear Lake is also known as the STD capital of Manitoba, for the summer at least... everyone is on vacation and everyone is looking to fuck.
A lot of people from Winnipeg head to the lakes in the Whiteshell provincial park for the summer holidays, especially Falcon Lake. Located on the Manitba/Ontario border. Again, it's very pristine country with nice cottages.
Clear Lake and The Whiteshell are alot nicer than Lake Winnipeg/Lake Manitoba, although Gimli and Grand Beach see alot of traffic since they are so close to Winnipeg.

*Edit* I want to point out that Manitoba does have great summer weather. Hot, dry and sunny... southern Manitoba probably has the nicest summer weather in Canada. I guess it's trying to make up for the winters.

Again, excellent post Ripsaw, thanks for sharing this info on Manitoba. Your province doesn't get a lot of attention, even throughout Canada, I don't really know too much about it, but from the sounds of it, its your quintessential Canadian experience: the great outdoors at its best!

It seems like most guys on this forum are city types, chic hip guys who prefer the hustle and bustle of the big city, especially since theres so many options for women, I definitely prefer living in a city. However I did grow up in the country (about 45 minutes from Halifax, a really cool, decent sized city on Canada's east coast) so I like to get away from the city every so often, especially to go fishing! Small town Canada, especially a place like Manitoba, are places where guys from the states who grew up hunting and fishing would really really like, you'd also do well with the Canadian women with your funny accents and knowledge of firearms and hunting!

On hunting, I"m not a big hunter myself, but eventually would like to get into it. Theres a lot of talk on here about what defines an "alpha", well I'm no expert on the subject, but what could be more "alpha" then spending a weekend in the bush, riding quads skidoos or argos with a few of your buddies, then coming back with a big fuckin moose or elk and filling you fridge with it. Or going fishing and coming back with enough fish to feed you and your family for a week.

Also, I never ate much wild game growing up until I had these Newfie roommates, and those guys got me ADDICTED to moose meat, its so good and of course all natural, no hormones or shit like that...mmmmm.....bottled moose meat! I know many Newfies and other Canadians who don't buy ANY meat from groceries stores, they think its gross, I think being able to kill an animal or catch a bunch of fish and feed your family makes you a MAN!

CANADA: beyond the big three

I really like the nature but, If you start hunting you will miss the most productive time of the year to get women [Image: wink.gif]

CANADA: beyond the big three

"It seems like most guys on this forum are city types, chic hip guys who prefer the hustle and bustle of the big city, especially since theres so many options for women, I definitely prefer living in a city"

Manitoba would be a great place to live when a man has slowed down and is ready to settle down. Honestly, I would have likely moved to a city for my younger years if I didn't have such a good thing going here. Manitoba's housing industry is booming and I'm making good money building houses on speculation. Not to mention being my own boss and going on vacation whenever I want. The next step is multi-residential rental units. So... I have a shot here at a solid passive revenue stream by the time I'm 35.

Your right, there is alot of that talk, and I often think the same thing myself. Now... it doesn't take much balls to shoot a deer with a rifle from 600 yards away... there's plenty of women who do that... but I grew out of that when I was a teenager. I would rather bow hunt. It doesn't matter how many things you've shot with a gun... the first time you draw a bow on a buck and he's so close that you can hear him breathing and see the white of his eyes... your arms WILL be shaking. You put him down with an arrow through his chest and then walk up on him when he's still huffing and spitting up blood... trying to get up. Stick him in the throat with your knife and watch him bleed out... then you have to gut him, skin him, dress him and carry him out on your shoulders... this puts hair on your chest.
But I stop short of saying that it makes you "alpha" (I hate that term by the way). Neither does knowing how to bed women... It's all just part of being a well rounded... well grounded man.
