Reducing gas taxes will not lower gas prices in the long run. gas companies know people can and will pay $2 a liter. They would just come up with an excuse to raise gas prices back up.

My uncle who is now in his 80's in Thailand with an extremely meager military pension ($1,500) per month, is able to own his place and live very comfortably.
To this day since leaving in his retirement, he's never came back to Canada, and never will. He fully plans to live out his life until death in Thailand, it's been 15 years now.
He hated being here in Canada with his little pension, scraping for bits to stay afloat as a retiree, Thailand was the best choice for him. I can't imagine how older folks making sub $2K a month can get by out here.

I guess it depends on your family/financial situation. My parents plan is to eventually move to the mainland to be closer to the grand kids. My dad is flying to Alberta Saturday to watch my nephew play hockey.
I wonder what would happen if we had open boarders everywhere and anyone could move to anywhere they wanted.
