I can see it now. Some stupid jerk as mayor and an even bigger jerk (Thugg Ford) as Premier.
I think I will move back to Quebec.

It's giving me half a mind to move back to my home town of Sarnia. Even though I haven't lived there in 35 years, have no friends there and only one relative I see only rarely. London is starting to get stupidly expensive to live in, thanks to economic and other policies from a succession of mayors who have been trying to gentrify the city and to hell with everyone else.
Sarnia has many fewer amenities than London does, and there's not much to do there. But it is a very compact city and very easy to get around in if you have a car - the public transit system in Sarnia is pretty poor. Heck, an electric bike that has decent range will get you around Sarnia pretty well.
On the plus side, there is a nice river and a lake, spectacular sunsets, and the climate in Sarnia is somewhat better. In the winter, Sarnia gets maybe half the snow London does, and there are fewer snowstorms and severely cold days.
I can remember only one time where I actually experienced a true 'snow day' in Sarnia, while in London, I've experienced at least three.
