    Yes there are. McGill is a very prestgious university, not to mention others such as UBC ( University of British Columbia), Waterloo and Saskatchewan.

    Seeign as it sounds like you will enter post-secondary soon, you shoudl look into these, as well as others.

    Studying? He wants to know about studying in Canada? I've got something for you to study my friend. Okay, its a few things. First, is pot. It may not be legal, but that does not mean we that more then 60% of the population doesn't do it. Second: Drinking age of 19. Everywhere. We will keep this thread free of negative feelings towards Canadians of any and all provinces.

    On the topic of negativity and Canada in general, you should come to the Atlantic provinces. We're Canada's retarded little brother.

    You can view the literacy list to give you a basic idea of where Canada stands here:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._literacy_rate

    As well as from my experience it does vary. Big cities have a much richer curriculum than the country I found (I attended both a country and a city high school). In the city there are a lot of different kinds of classes available depending on where you are looking (I'm from Ontario), what city you're in, and what you're interested in.

    For instance, in the country I was able to take shop and the grade 11 project (I had left by then) in advanced shop was a co-op where you actually built a house with 2 contractors overseeing the work (framing). We also had a full salon to practice our cosmetology in the school itself.

    What they didn't have which I took in the city was Philosophy, World Issues, advanced Calculous, computer programming, etc. More intellectually challenging than physically overall.

    I hope that's what you're looking for and PM me if you have any questions about the general area you're moving to, I will try to find some good references for you!

    Compliments of the wonderful Warsimi!
