He called nanaimo friendly , that was kinda funny.

To anyone thinking of coming here: no. Don’t. You’ll hate ie. it rains all the time and there are black bears walking the streets. Deer will jump right out in front of you when you are driving. Day or night. There are massive lineups at the ferries. Flights are crazy expensive and always delayed. There are no jobs and it’s impossible to find rentals. There are no good restaurants and here’s no social life. You will regret coming here 😅

I absolutely love this property. This is God‘s country.😇

I'm so tired of this abandonment you want it fight with love. Don't let them take over. I live down town and see it everyday. Don't stand down. Fight. Visit the parks. Make them uncomfortable.

Sadly Nanaimo is a hole. Other than a few nice area it’s a dump.

They are both extremely nice towns to visit.

Easy idea: dont move here lol its too expensive already

What I love about this property is...absolutely no neighbors whatsoever !

He forgot the Stinky Pulp Mill that stinks up the whole East coast of the island for 100’s of km,

Don’t come here it’s already too crowded and too many homeless

There won’t truly be downtown “revitalization” until the city has a proper multiplex downtown. The Port Theatre is it. Horrid decision by council to build a conference center that mostly houses city council. Or the “cruise ship” wharf. White elephants. Downtown revitalization must be driven by residents and there needs to be a draw to bring citizens and residents downtown. E&N needs to be run in the opposite direction if there’s any chance of success, commuter and shopping in Victoria during the day and returning up island in the evening.

Great video on the narrows, it's an amazing spot.

#shithole

Born and raised this guy hasn't got a clue

As mentioned in your video, the only good thing about Nanaimo are the great attractions outside of it.

nickname for Nanaimo back in the day coaltown

This is the same situation in many parts of the UK especially in Yorkshire.

Hello friend!!!! I’ve been watching your videos since December of last year, and noticed that you are not posting any new content. You are doing great in presenting Nanaimo to newcomers and I would like to encourage you to continue and add more content about new construction in area, and how mortgage loans works at BC. Here is a family that maybe is moving from USA 🇺🇸 to Canada 🇨🇦 and Nanaimo is in our list thanks to you.

downtown is a hole...parks are nice on the outskirts

It looks built up around the lake. Is it noisy as a result?

I didn't know it got that hot in the Cowichan Valley. That certainly changes my opinions of where to live on the island.

Bonnel creek falls in Nanoose are very similar with large pools for swimming

This was a year ago, wait until you get invaded and you will have a tent city there too!

3:16 parksville is not that hot in july and august. The average high is 22.

My grandmother lives in Newcastle near the QE2 promenade and there are two lawn chairs in the park. They are not bolted down or anything. There a copious homeless people under the bridge and into downtown. I do not understand why because other things will go missing and be taken. Those two chairs remain. There is a homeless problem in Nanaimo. But having walked down to the port theatre hundreds of times and running into "hairy" situations, speak to the homeless with respect and they are very kind.

I don't care where you are Canada in winter.. it's freezing no matter which way you look it 🥶❄️.

Edmonton Alberta has many old coal mines under the city.

I couldn't live there I can smell the dump thru the video 😂

Nanaimo has over 700 acres of surface parking lots. That's where any new development should go. Nanaimo's development pattern is why I consider it BC's worst city. Kelowna is next for the same reason.

In 1980 until 1982 we lived in Nanaimo. I didn’t like it. A lot of Satan Choice were there. I used to call it Butcher’s Hollow. We then moved to Victoria. It was great. Loved Government street and Oak Bay Marina.

I used to live in Victoria. I loved it there.

Great video. I would love it if u can help with student accommodation in Nanaimo campus, VIU in September 2024.

For someone who loves living on the island you complain alot.

It's just the same video topic over and over and over. Lol

Too many gay people

Lived there 4 years.... good riddance. Rain, ferries, and not very nice locals. Too many LGBTQ and baby boomer idiots. Their politics have ruined Canada. RiP: BC

Parksville does not have a Mediterranean climate which requires an average yearly temperature of 10 degrees Celsius. Parksville's average temperature is 9.5 C. sorry. Port Alberni is the only Vancouver Island city that has a Mediterranean climate, as Koppen defines as Csa. (with Lake Cowichan and Woss Camp coming extremely close) Of further interest is that Port Alberni holds the Canadian record for Snowfall (to answer your question, yes it snows on Vancouver Island.) In the winter of 1967-68 Port Alberni had a snowfall of 23 feet 11 inches. One of the ridges on the way to Tofino, Dorian Ridge regularly get over 80 feet of snow. Ummm maybe you should ask is "do many cities on Vancouver Island NOT get snow".

I think you lost me at the park where alcohol was prohibited while tubing

All very wonderful but we're getting overrun, overwhelmed and overpopulated...

3 bedroom water damaged lead paint house without vents that might also fall into a mine shaft and cant be renovated cus its on heritage land or whatever. $7,000,000 and $20k yearly land payments. Than go work at McDonald's to pay for it cus there is literally nothing going on whatsoever on Vancouver island. The most exciting thing to ever happen here is seeing the change from winter to summer.

Maybe do some retakes when you say the wrong dates instead of a little fumble correction. Now we have incorect dates in our heads for no reason. And bro dont mention something really cool and interesting like the riots and shootings over protest about the mines than say "look it up" like bro, were literally watching a video for the history of that right now, Dont tell me to to look it up myself instead of just explaining it for 30 seconds while were all already here and you know the history

Deal of the month!! I have friends who found out it's cheaper to take the walk-on ferry to downtown Van and rent a BMW for the weekend than take their own vehicle.

Also part of ladysmith has possible mines

What about the mine shafts under nanaimo going to Gabriola Island

Don't forget part of Cumberland hear royston has coal mines

I wonder if bare land is still available or has that all been locked up by speculators as well

Nanaimo is a nice city with great service, all the amenities and great views. I moved to Gabriola a year ago and I’m so glad that Nanaimo is our support city.

How about loud exhaust pipes in Nanaimo? Oh sorry for bringing up the topic, I understnd if thats a sensitive topic 😂

Would prefer to actually see the places you're talking about rather than you and aerial views.

What happened to the channel. Haven’t seen a new video posted in three months
