People are scared to go outside there box these days and have a lot more comfort with hanging out with their close group of friends and are just happy that way. Every race hase there comfort bubble which that is mainly natural. It's really a sad way to live life if you don't experiance new things and just stick to whats normal for you and what you grew up or have become a custom too. |

I can sort of understand about the South Asians though. My neighborhood is surrounded by them. Their kids play in the alley, scream across the alley to talk to each other, and eyeball me whenever I drive by. Would you see this with a neighborhood of Chinese, Vietnamese, etc families? YMMV, I guess. That last point really applies to anybody these days. Did people forget that it's rude to stare at others? Keep your eyes on yourself. |
we are lonely.............. |

Vancouver is a anti-social city. Period. I can try to strike up a conversation about anything on the skytrain/bus/walking, and nobody wants to talk to you. I end up talking to bums/homeless people more because they want to talk. The "normal" person walking down the street can't give a flying fuck about what you want to say, or who you are. Another reason why all the guys bitch and moan that "Vancouver Women" suck. :thumbsup: |

i must also conclude that i also live in maple ridge and have been living here for while, and although the asian population is minimal compare to many cities in vancouver, i generally dont get that uncomfortable feel as oppose to when im in abbotsford |
The Sun is running a weeklong series on this subject. Typically I take opinions on newspaper sites with a grain of salt, but I would say the majority of responses are in line with the study. People like to blame housing costs for everything including the lack of friendliness here. However, it doesn't cost anything to at least say "Hello" or to flash a smile. I live in an apartment building and I try to at least say hello to people in the elevator. However, I often see people buried in their phones. It's quite sad really. Anyway, there is of course the stock/noobie meet coming up next week. Perhaps all of the forever alone people should come out. I'll be there greeting all of you and will be ready to chat about cars and current events. |

It's a very good way of giving. Bursaries is not part of the fields of interests, per se, it's grouped it with HMR (health medical research) they have various colleges that they work with and allocate x amount of bursaries per college/year |

+1 again on the general attitudes of people here. i've live in alberta as well - and other provinces. boy the difference is astounding. |

I'm simply stating my unbiased observations, not criticizing. One could logically reach the conclusion that those residing in densely populated urban areas are less openly friendly and polite towards the general population because of the high level of energy and time that would need to be expended. If a person makes an effort to extend a friendly greeting, or polite gesture, to a significant percentage people who they do not have an association with aside from proximity in a dense urban area it would require a great deal of energy and time. Therefore, people in dense urban areas reserve friendliness and politeness for those to which they have a more significant connection. Likewise, anyone who has spent a significant amount of time in very rural areas will likely testify to the friendliness and politeness of people. Although the association two people may have in a rural area is also limited to proximity, there are so many fewer people the energy required is much less and therefore acceptable. Quote:

Abbotsford is quite racially and socially diverse and friendly in my experience, but there's no disputing the (declining) presence of a white christian community that is unwelcoming and judgemental. Even I've experienced the random stares/glares from that community. Working on job sites ran by Mennonite contractors I would always get those looks, once I actually got chewed out by a Mennonite drywaller (Mennonites in construction are easy to spot, they wear dress clothes) for talking to a attractive female neighbor at a job site. :lol |
I've lived, so far, in Cleveland, Rio de Janeiro, and Vancouver. Vancouver is far and away the most unwelcoming city. No shit, really. We knew all our neighbours in Cleveland, and we frickin' got invited to birthdays, parties and events. Mind you, we were Latinos living in an upper class white-collar neighborhood. Rio de Janeiro, well, people are really friendly (unless they want to steal your shit or kill you). But overall friendly. Here? Shit, unless you are part of the major, uh, 'ethnic groups', you're pretty much screwed. I rarely see a group of, say, Indians, Filipinos and Chinese hanging out together. Everyone is all very segregated. |

Part of it have to do with technology. I mean 10years ago when ppl aren't listening to thier ipods, whatsapp, or using thier smart phone is a lot easier to strike conversion with someone on the street. Now, ppl have thier earphones a lot of timnes, texting, checking FB, twitter, etc on thier smart phone while not paying attention to the streets or even want to talk to anyone at all. |
