Exclamation Relocation

Hello
This is my first post in this lovely site. I am a new member in this wonderful reef community.
My wife got a new job and we are re-locating to Canada, BC, Maple Ridge.
I would appreciate if some one can tell me about Maple Ridge and the region from all aspects of life and of curse our amazing hubby.

Thanks

Not sure about Maple Ridge, but BC is an all around win in my books.

Maple Ridge is a nice suburban/rural community east of the hustle and bustle of Vancouver and the more metropolitan suburbs of Burnaby and Coquitlam. Lots of acreages and farms, quite pretty. Nearby is Pitt Lake, the world's largest freshwater tidal lake, one of my favorite summertime boating/waterskiing destinations. Surrounded by mountains, with a great waterfall and marine campground it is really beautiful.

Welcome to Canreef and the Lower Mainland! There are several great SW stores in the area to support your addiction.

What is a freshwater tidal lake? If you mean that it's a freshwater lake that has tides .. I'm afraid to tell you that Superior is somewhat larger and is FW and has tides.
