CHOI FM? :P

That's in Quebec City.
Is it?  I had thought they had closed it down for counter-revolutionary attitudes.  Viper was raging about it for years.

And Viper lives close to Quebec City.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

Close? The same way someone who lives in Red Deer lives close to Edmonton/Calgary.

This highly relative.

However, Cochrane is close to Calgary. RD is not.

This might be a bad example since RD is big enough to be a City while where Viper lives, Riviere-Du-Loup, is just some small town 2h east of QC City.

Viper - your responses to me seem to be pretty divorced from anything I'm actually posting, so I'm dropping out of the conversation for the time being.

Yeah, probably the most significant difference.

RDL is 45 minutes to the east of where I live. :)  It's much smaller than that over here, RDL is like the area's metropolis :P
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

it's close to Montreal and the south shore is rapidly growing, getting more&more independant from MTL everyday.  It's a small city surrounded by fields and the highway is far enough to not bother you.
Downside: if you need to work in Montreal, you're fucked.  3 of the bridges are half closed all the time and may crumble under you anytime.  But if you can avoid Montreal, and you must live in a city, this might be good.

142km., 1h27 minutes according to Google Maps.  Of course, I've hear of tales, from people I know, who know some guys doing it in 1h00 or less.  But I would never do such a thing, myself.   :shutup:

they tried.  It was supposed to be shut down.  But then, there was an election.  With 11 Conservatives MPs, mostly in Quebec city.  So the station was allowed to stay on, so long as it changed owner.  But it's only a shadow of its former self, they removed all the music.
