For ace$pade: I am not an expert in legal issues of the matter. But as far as I understand, the law in Canada is even more opposed to online gambling than in the States (although there are land-based casinos at every corner!), so even “gambling information web sites” are in the gray area of the law. The west side is nice, but is very expensive. So on your place I would think twice before relocating!
For TheGooner: Actually, my wife has a NZ citizenship, she was born and raised there (South Island, Gore). My brother-in-law went there two years ago, liked it much better than Australia. The climate is very nice, never too hot or too cold. Although, I personally do not like humidity and wind, here in the praries it is always dry and sunny (even when it is -40C!-b-r-r-r). People are friendly. Life is quiet and sleepy. Nice for a retiree. Unfortunately, I am not the one, not even close. First let me justify future moving expences with my affiliate earnings, then we’ll see…
Is it really so liberal in NZ with gambling? I would never think! It seems to me so socialistic and government-controlled!
As to the guns, unfortunately Canadians have already forgotten the time when they were free to buy them! So for me there is nothing to leave behind.
