    • 真感人,眼泪一把
    • 总结的非常好.哈哈...不过disagree with第三条. $store 还是要去的,好多东西别的地方不卖,或找不到.
    • 挺准确的.新移民刚来都处于蜜月期,蜜月期后是磨和期和适应期,再过后,就进入个性独立期.
    • 同楼上,移民10+年我现在还得去刀拉店,给孩子买手工用品,Micheal's 太贵了;还去KFC, and always order by number. 实在不知道那些Combo有啥区别,随机点一个能果腹即可
      • 这。。。。只能正名你还是个新移民。
        有人来加拿大20年,一直在餐馆打工,英文,选举,啥也不会。也只能算新移民。呵呵。
    • Totally agree with allergy, but do not why that could happen
    • 怎么算"新"怎么算"旧"?到这里的实际年份还是心态?
      • 如果你能和帖中"old immigrants"产生更多的共鸣,你就算老的了. :)
        • 看来我算“新”的了,尽管.....嘿嘿。而且我发现那些来了几十年的各族裔的老移民们,也都相当不符合这些特点。也许吧,再过n年,各位的想法又变了。
          • 俺这也是随便写,十分钟划拉出来的。不过也想听听哪些不符合啊?
            • Who write "New immigrants: you don't know what is allergy"? OLD- or NEW?
          • 俺也感兴趣,请展开....
    • 花花,有点儿意思.
    • something for myself
      agree most of what you said,but to be frankly, I really like the doctors and nurses here,I feel warm and comfortable whenever I have to visit them, even when have to pay the parking for whole night ;And I don't get mad again when I heard "I hate you", instead I'll say "I hate KFC", lol.
      • 这个好。目前还没机会听到“I hate you”。真要听到了就用你的。
    • !!
    • 加一条:新移民很喜欢加班,因为那都是钱;老移民很讨厌加班,即使加班钱给的很多也不是很情愿。
    • 原创吗?厉害厉害。很到位。
    • i am kinda old but how comes still go to dollorama?
      • Because you are so cheap, man.
        • I just went there
          • You are
            very practical, a smart shopper.
    • 看来我不算新、也不够老……
    • 老了老了,岁月如风。
    • I am half, half.
    • Only thing i can think of that the old immigrants still go to $ store cuz they have kids. "you never have a chance to use the free services" for the old immigrants, it is so true!!
    • 大部分很对,除了dollar store和咖啡,难道我太落伍了:-)
    • so true and so cool, but just the $ store. Actually we 4 colleagues went shopping in $ store this week during lunch break and i'm the only immigrant of the 4.
    • 记得刚移民过来的时候碰到好几个老移民问我住哪里,我如实回答,
      得知我的情况后他们很惊讶地问我为何不把一个房间出租给别人,和孩子二个人住着2+1的condo,而且还是二间卫浴的条件竟然让他们觉得是非常奢侈的一件事,当时的我一下子觉得自己很有负罪感,这算新旧移民的区别吗?
    • 总结的不错。不过医生和房子的感受不一样。发现好多敬业并且精业务的医生,房子觉得还是大了。
      • 这么老的贴被你发掘出来了呀
