Which would you choose?

[Benjamin]

So the UK has three working holiday connections; Australia, New Zealand and Canada. If you were to pick one to go on (meaning you can work, travel and live in that country for a year) which would you choose?

[lostalex]

Australia.

As a California boy i don't think Australia would be that different. I think it'd be a pretty easy adjustment.

[Ramsay]

Canada for sure

[Ammi]

..Canada...

[lostalex]

I don't get all the Canada love. To me, moving to Canada would be like moving to Idaho or Wisconsin or something. How would that be exciting?

[Josy]

Canada

[Marc]

Canada or NZ, I like the idea of being in a nice cold place with snow and chilling with a few Canadians :)

[joeysteele]

Canada,I have cousins there too so another reason to do so.

[Niamh.]

Australia, one of my best friends is Australian so it'd be good to spend some time with her, plus because of the weather

[lostalex]

you mean fvvcking a few Canadians lol

[lostalex]

Australians are so much more awesome than Canadians, yu guys are crazy! Canada is like exactly like the US, i don't get it. What's so exciting about Canada?

[Saph]

Australia

NZ would be my second choice, Canada doesnt really appeal to me..

[AnnieK]

NZ I think......

[King Gizzard]

just don't like the idea of being totally secluded in Aus/NZ, at least you can go to the US from Canada

My dad lived there for a year or so and I have an apparently canadian middle name

[Me. I Am Salman]

Canada, I don't really like people from Australia / New Zealand

[Niamh.]

Why not? what a strange thing to say

[lostalex]

yea i think that's why most people are saying Canada, cause they wanna come to the US lol. That's not really fair to Aus and NZ.

[lostalex]

that's like racist or something lol./

I don't like that. shame on you.

[Jake.]

Canada, I don't really like people from Australia / New Zealand

Erm

[Jake.]

For me, Australia :love:

[lostalex]

I have an apparently canadian middle name

what's yur middle name?

[Marc]

A lot of Aus folk don't really like the English. There's plenty of examples of people moving out there and getting stunned and not welcomed. I'd be afraid of that

[Niamh.]

Really? I don't know about that, I've met a lot of Australians and they all seem to want to travel to England and get working visas for there.

[Marc]

Yeah it's even a 'thing' :laugh: look it up

[lostalex]

really? you think Brits get treated badly? lol compared to who? you think people from China, or India, or Brazil, or America or any other country you can think of get treated better??? lol Prolly New Zealanders get treated the worst in Australia and they are Australia's best friends. It's called banter.

dude, get real.

It's hilarious when white people claim discrimination.

If you are that thin-skinned then you should definitely not be traveling.

you should prolly just travel to countries where you don't know the language, that way you can just feel superior, and never hear the horrible things they are saying about you. lol

no offense dude, but seriously.

[Marc]

:crazy:

[Marc]

No I was also making a point, a valid one. Like I said there are plenty of examples where it HAS happened. There has even been TV Programmes on it, so why would I need to 'get real'.

Your way of approaching a debate is aggressive and rude, I'm surprised at 31 years old you can't see that or understand that somethings got to change if you want to remain on here.

[lostalex]

I guess i'm just : crazy : then.

I apologize if you felt I was being aggressive or rude. Frankly I thought it was aggressive and rude of you to claim that Aussies are some how HORRIBLE towards Brits.

I'm not an Aussie or a Brit, so i have no bias.

[Kazanne]

Canada.

[Marc]

I didn't say they were 'HORRIBLE'

If you're not even willing to accept my side on this or even look it up then why should I bother continuing with this debate?

[Marc]

And bias doesn't even factor in to it. My opinion is based on other people's experiences.

[lostalex]

We arn't having a "debate". I'm just responding in a thread dude. Why are you so offended by someone responding to something that you said? We disagree. is that okay?

[Marc]

Of course it is but you can't claim I'm totally wrong because I have an opinion different to yours.

[Suze]

Canada. I have quite a few cousins in Canada also.

[lostalex]

Fair enuf. You don't wanna go to Australia, lol, more beach for me :P

My only point was that i don't think Aussies are more discriminatory towards Brits than any other foreigners. I'm sure there are plenty of Aussies that would give me an earful over George Bush and the Iraq war when i go to Australia. And i'm sure plenty of chinese and indians get similar prejudices against them when they travel to australia, just like any country in the world. That's just world travel though.

I don't believe the Aussies have any kind of special hate for Brits. That's all i'm saying.

[Kizzy]

Canada ay...

[LemonJam]

I have family in both Australia and New Zealand, but probably Australia.

[MTVN]

Canada probably, not sure why but Australia has never really appealed to me despite it being such a popular place for gap years/travelling/emigration

[Chuck]

Canada because my dream is have a "proper" winter with snow etc. :"(

[Marc]

I want the snowy weather too! Heat hates me

[MTVN]

Can see myself being a lumberjack in a nice little log cabin in the middle of nowhere in Canada

[Marc]

You've just described my ideal holiday/life minus the lumberjack'ness

[lostalex]

a very masculine fantasy. So you guys arn't interested in girls at all then?? lol

now i understand why everyone wants to go to canada, big hairy lumber jacks in a log cabin, cuddle up to get warm, i get it now lol.

Brokeback Mountain part 2.

[MTVN]

Don't be so homophobic

[lostalex]

Don't be so homophobic

I'm not being homophobic! I'm so wishing i was a big hairy canadian lumberjack right now! how is that homophobic?

[InOne]

Canada definitely. I know a few Canucks and they very much have our sense of humour.

[Niamh.]

They do have a great sense of humour actually and they're so easy going and lots of fun, I worked with a few Canadians in London

It differs with French Canadians though. They don't seem to like Brits too much which is why they fight hard to keep people speaking French.

[Niamh.]

Not wanting to lose French as their language doesn't mean they're against Britain though, why wouldn't people want to hold onto their language?

One of the girls I worked with was French Canadian, she's lovely, actually the only one I kept in contact with

Not just that, the ones I've met were really off with me. Can only go by my own experience. I know most of them will be sorted though.

Well, tbh the only French Canadian I ever met was this one girl and she was one of the nicest, most friendly people I ever met so that's all I can go by :laugh:

Well, it seems we wrapped this up nice and neatly then. :pipe:

[Shaun]

Canada seems the most interesting and cultured of the three, so that. I wouldn't really turn down any of them really, but I would put New Zealand second because Australia has all the deadly **** and so on.

[Niamh.]

[JamesBond007]

Lived in Australia for a while and if you have a trade you'd could make a great living for yourself. Plus the weather and the fact the bars are open 24/7 are another factor to go there.

[Glenn.]

It's really hard because all three are places I'd love to go to.

Australia has great weather and I have family out there somewhere but on the other hand there's a million things that can kill you instantly and I have a phobia of spiders so I that would be at the bottom of my list.

New Zealand seems interesting enough but I imagine New Zealand to be like Australia with the wildlife. My knowledge is less than adequate on New Zealand to make an informed decision.

Canada would be my choice. I know a Canadian. She moved to the island and started at our school in yr5. Ironically she's travelling in New Zealand at the minute. If hear a lot of amazing stories about Canada and I've wanted to go out there since then. Plus my dad had family out there.

[Patrick]

How the absolute ****** is Canada winning over Australia? :laugh2:
