Fair enough, actually. I lived in Edmonton and making friends was effortless. I live in Victoria now, and making friends here is damn near impossible…unless you went to elementary school with them (and your family is in the right wealth class).
If you think Calgary is friendly, you should try Edmonton…best people ever up there.
I’m in Victoria, too. 8 years here and not much of a friend group even with such like minded people at work.
I feel like Victoria is maybe the best city in all of NA but man the vibes here are strange. Go out west into the woods and it just gets weirder. I have stories and those woods breathe evil I swear.
It’s a tough town. I moved here after elementary school, and it’s the most cliquey place i’ve ever lived. The old money locals here are some of the worst human beings i have ever met. Entitled, NIMBY, hypocritical, sociopathic and straight up evil…and they can’t drive worth shit either.
Victoria has some really dark clouds hanging over it…you can feel it when you drive through the Uplands. Old, dark money hides here. These people took what they have, and have no respect for what they have. They think they’re beautiful people, because they live in a beautiful place.
But, Victoria is a beautiful place, and there are beautiful people here too. It’s gotten a lot more multicultural lately, and the new Victorians are the best Victorians. There are things happening too.
SkaFest is a bunch of good people. That’s coming up…you should check that out.
