在加拿大
我在98年曾经到过多伦多约一个星期,目的主要是旅游和探望我的哥哥, 那时我还未有移民的念头。 而自从2/3年前打算移民到加拿大后, 一直想再到多伦多一次, 看看多伦多变成什么样子, 终于在06年4月, 有机会和老婆再到多伦多逗留了一个月, 发觉多伦多这8年间的变化很大。 例如8年前的人口密度比现时低很多, 当时地铁在非繁忙时间只有老年人乘搭, 而且肯定有座位空出, 但是现在的非繁忙时间也有很多人乘搭, 包括年轻人, 上班一族和学生, 也不一定有座位空出。以前只是在市中心的 Eaton Centre 比较多人, 现在 downtown 已经到处都有人满之患。 在未再看多伦多的之前, 先来看一看日本的富士山, 照片是航机在飞往多伦多途中摄的。 这是我第二次在飞机上看到富士山。记得第一次从飞机上看到富士山大约是在6年前, 由夏威夷回航时, 当时是无意中发现的, 因此便轻呼了一声, 由于我这一声轻呼惊动了我前座的老外, 使他也发现了富士山, 如是者一传十, 差不多全机乘客也发现了, 老外们很高兴, 连忙向我说多谢。

1,292 $0.00 感觉上多伦多现时比8年前繁荣了很多, 在 Yonge 街上的商店的橱窗比以前已美化了不少, 卖的货品亦潮了很多。 现在 downtown的主要街道的人流可以说是8年前的2至3倍, (当然与国内大城市的人流依然是无得比)。在最大型商场 Eaton Centre内便更夸张了, 假日的人流很多, 不过也没有拥挤的感觉, 可能是因为商场有足够的空间。 以前要买华人食品只可以到一些小型露天购物中心 (plaza) 购买, 现在已有很多大型华人超市了, 卖的食品都以华人顾客为目标, 很适合华人的口味。现时华人超市的装璜已经很美伦美焕, 与老外的超市已差无几。 8年前多伦多的超市所卖的货品, 不论在种类或质素方面, 和现时也相差很远。 附图是多伦多一家华人超市。评论

1,292 $0.00 谢谢大家支持! 回应又见飞刀: 八年的中国城市你都认不出街道了。 中国是发展中国家, 加拿大是已发展国家, 不能直接比较。例如我在94年曾到过瑞士, 在03年再到瑞士的时侯, 发觉除了火车车厢由一层变成两层, 和华丽了很多之外, 市面上的情况可以说是没有什么分别。 如果说中国在这8年间的经济是翻了一翻, 那么加拿大应该算是翻了半翻, 以加拿大这样的“老国” 而言, 能有此成绩, 已经算是相当少有了。 回应Crystal Clear: 人口到底多了多少? TTC一直说乘客不够, 老亏本. 地铁的网络只限于多伦多市内。多伦多市人口在2006年7月的估计是263万。不过每天从大多伦多其他地区到多伦多市上班和上学的人数便难以估计。地铁的乘客绝对是足够的, 但是能否有营利便要看管理是否得宜了。评论
多伦多市在8年前就只有 Eaton Centre 一个大型多层式商场, 其他的所谓商场, 都只是露天, 单层式的, 而且规模很小。但是现在类似 Eaton Centre 的商场在多伦多市已有不少, 而规模和装璜亦绝不在 Eaton Centre之下。 不过, 这些 “经济高速发展” 只是限制于多伦多市内, 在大多伦多的其他地区 (即York, Halton, Peel, Durham), 发展步伐仍然只能算是“有秩序” 地进行。 在大多伦多的其他地区, 唯一可以称得上有翻天覆地的改变就是房子。 根据人口普查资料, 大多伦多的人口由1996年的462万, 增加至2001年的530万, 而在2006年7月的估计, 人口已达590万。10年间人口增加了百分之27, 房屋需求的殷切可想而知。 (待续) 附图是多伦多市内一个叫Yorkdale的商场。

反馈:俸禄xz 和 rong 2007-01-03#19 1,292 $0.00 现时多伦多市的房价比较01年已胀了约五成, 虽然这个幅度与国内的房价相比只是小巫见大巫, 不过对当地人来说已是很难承担得起了, 现在年轻一辈如果想在多市内置业, 多半都会选择柏文, 因为房价比较低, 所以现时多市的柏文数量亦比8年前多了很多。 如果仍然钟情独立屋, 但是又不想负担太昂贵的房价, 便唯有向周边地区寻找, 不过即使是邻近多市的北约克, 烈治文山, 或万锦市这些华人喜欢的地区, 房价一样不便宜, 唯一房价比较算是可接受水平, 而又邻近多市的地区要算是士加堡了,但平均房价也要27万加元左右, 不过士加堡除了华人多, 黑人和越南人也多, 感觉上会比较“混杂”。 至于白人, 他们有自己一套的住房哲学, 他们不会为了追求便捷而负担高昂的房价, 相反地, 他们只会越搬越远, 用换房子所吐取的现金来消费。白人是宁愿每天长途拔涉开车上班, 也要寻求一处他们认为是理想的居住环境。 由于现时房屋需求大, 新房屋便不断向新地区发展, 以前只是一片荒芜之地的地区, 现在也相继发展成为住宅区。新发展区主要集中在多市以北的地区, 由烈治文山以北的奥露拉(Aurora) 开始, 经纽马克(Newmarket), 一直伸延至距离多市约90公里的 Barrie。其中纽马克更是白人的至爱。 (待续) 附图是万锦市的独立屋。评论
