After reading the last few posts I can't help but shake my head. I'm stuck wondering just what exactly do you expect from London? Molsonexport can't love London after moving from Montreal. Well duh, if your frame of reference for London is Montreal it is going to come up horribly short.
People are complaining that London is bland and quiet. Well outside of Toronto or Ottawa please tell me the city or municipality in Ontario that has significantly more entertainment options then London. You compare it to Cities like Halifax, Regina, and Saskatoon which happen to all be the only centers of consequence for more than a days drive, well not Regina and Saskatoon but I've been to both and I'm not sure how they are so much better than London anyway. If any of those cities were a two hours drive from Toronto they look very much like London.
Finally people complain about jobs and again I read the papers and outside of Toronto I'm hard pressed to find all these Ontario cities that are just booming.

I think you all have unrealistic expectations for London and for some reason you are all horribly disappointed when unsurprisingly London doesn't stack up.
