Canada First Timer

I plan on visiting Canada soon, as I've never been there. I'm a single
24 y.o. male. I've been told Montreal is ideal because it is geared to
a younger, more partying crowd. But, what about Toronto, Ottawa,
Vancouver, Edmonton, Newfoundland, and Nova Scotia? These places
interest me also. Thanks.

You can also find young, partying crowds in Toronto and Vancouver. You may
have a harder time of it in Ottawa or Edmonton, but they're both cities,
so they do have nightlife (and Ottawa is right across the river from Hull,
Quebec, so you have twice the options). As for Newfoundland and Nova
Scotia, outside of places like Halifax, they're more rural so you're
probably not as likely to find a hot, happening nightlife. Of course, they
do offer other forms of appeal.

I am sure that you will find lots of interest for a person your age in all
those spots.

I live next to the University of Ottawa and belive me there is no
shortage young partying crowds in Ottawa.

The thing that fascinates me most about Canada is that the longer
you're there, the more foreign it gets. If you're there only two weeks
or so, all is quite familiar for a US citizen as the differences are
subtle, revealed only with time. Don't ask me for specifics, though,
as it's been a while since I was there save a a few hours in May.

Ottawa, from what I hear, sucks. A friend of mine spent two weeks there and
apparently the two most popular hangouts among girls our age (I'm also a 24
y/o guy) are fitness centres and malls. At least it means the girls are in
good shape. Bars close at 2am and you're not allowed to smoke in them which
can be very bizarre if you're used to smokey bars but great if you don't
like cigarettes. Most of the people I've met who are from Ottawa readily
admit that their city's nightlife sucks.

Back in the old days (tm) if you thought Ottawa was boring you go
to Hull.

Toronto is definitely above Ottawa. It's a big city with a good amount of
choice. A couple friends of mine went and stumbled across a gay Irish pub.
Wasn't their thing but just think about how much variety there has to be for
someone to try and find their niche in the market by opening a gay Irish
pub. Smoking laws are the same as Ottawa.

Vancouver has great weed. That's all I know.

Newfoundland's capital has cheap beer. Really cheap beer. While I wouldn't
guarantee it, a friend of mine from there said that 10 cent draft nights
aren't unheard of.

I don't know anything about Edmonton or Nova Scotia, so I can't help out out
there, but I am from Montreal so if you choose to come here, post another
message detailing your interests a bit more and I'll give you a few
suggestions.
