    Guys, this post is about where to retire, not Global Conspiracies.
    Obviously tho', great minds like Salty and I have chosen Hope as a great place to retire ergo it must be a good place.
    Now, back to the shape of the Earth, we all know it's flat, otherwise the Australians would've all fallen off.

    Looked at Tumbler Ridge pretty closely several years back to do with an opportunity that got trumped by another one. Anyways my take away its a nice little town more services than most it size like a lot of ex company towns. And some fantastic hunting opportunities.

    Everytime I drive thru blue river and barriere I think this is where I'd like to be. Toad river is another one that appeals to me as well

    Since my last post on this thread I am now retired in the Cariboo, 20 minutes from 100 Mile and so far it's been great.
    I drive to town every 7-10 days for shopping and enjoying the quite, clean air here.
    Some locals say there are some big mulies around and real estate is still cheap.

    Re: Retirement towns

    I wonder if Qualicum will still be a retirement town in thirty years when I retire.

    I found Qualicum to be by far the bitchiest community on the island. Newspapers constantly full of fights about nothing, entitled attitudes, turn everythig down everyone got a big grouch on where ever you go in town. It won't ever be much unless a lot of things change there. But probably always somewhat of a retirement town.

    Isn't that the collective nature of retirees? Especially Baby Boomers, the most selfish generation in history.
