Hi! I was just wondering if there are any Canadian GCers out there, I'd love to here from you!

FYI I'm a ex-pat Torontonian currently at Northwestern U in Chicago

Cool!
I am an ex-Vancouverite living in Toronto now!

Gphi2k (Leslie) is a Torontonian as well.

Since I think you're a Chi O, Chi O used to have a Canadian chapter at Wellmuth College (now part of UWO)...alas, it was from 1899-1900! Check it out here: http://www.canadiangreeks.com/directory/chio.html

Hey,
Yah, there are few canuks around here. Hopefully lil g, sisterplum and siobhan will stop in to say hi.

As everyone knows (cause I never shut up about it), I'm from Toronto also. It's a great city. I'm from the north end of the city tho. Getting to where the action is is not always easy.

Why did you leave Toronto and go to the states *cough* traitor *cough*?

Not a real canuk, but I'm origanally from wisconsin, and go to school in arizona... here that I'm from almost canada all the time. possibly out pres will stop by too, shes a b.c. native

Lil_G · #5 07-28-2001, 11:23 AM

Yo. I'm a canuck from eastern ontario, one of the most beautiful parts of the country or so i'm told.

Why did you leave Toronto to go to the states *cough* traitor *cough*?

city.

For lack of my program!! It sucks, I'm back in TO for the summer (gphi2k, cutiepie2000, caddd365, where are u guys in toronto?)

I knew there was a chi o chapter at western, does anyone know what happened to it?

caddd, what's the greek life here? I didn't even know there was one here til i walked by lamda chi (my friend lives in innis)! It's weird how little is known about it here.

Toronto's greek scene is pretty lame. There isn't very much interest in it, unfortunately.

My best friend's boyfriend actually lives in that lamda chi house. Small world EH???

Our school is less than 1% greek. And the system is getting weaker every year. It's pretty sad...But I wouldn't trade my time being an active greek for anything.

I live in the north end of the city. Right at the northern edge of North York. Thornhill is across the street from my house. Where in the city are you from?

caddd365 · #11 07-30-2001, 10:48 PM

Hi!
I live in the west end close to the campus... and gphi is so right it is getting weaker every year.. which is really sad my first year was awesome! We would be at the Madison till closing on Mondays and shut down the Brunswick house after awesome socials and meetings and all that social sister stuff.. now the maddy is lame, they brunny is still kicking.. but we would like to liven it up with Greek Week and stuff.. we are getting media attention from a couple of university papers which is good and we are trying to get our letters out... OUr greek week slogan is "Get your Greek On!"
You should come by and check it out come September...

gphi2k · #12 07-31-2001, 12:14 AM

LOL
The brunny. Yes, all who have not been, must go.
Stay away from the draught beer tho. Stick to bottles
there.

I loved the Madison. I won't admit to loving
the brunny. i will only admit to going there.

When I entered greekland in my first year it was such
a party. Monday's at the maddy, thursdays at the
brunny and just hanging out all the days in between.
It's sad to see it become less than it was...

Liv4ChiO · #13 07-31-2001, 02:30 PM

gphi: i'm right at the corner of thornhill and scarborough. it is a pain getting downtown, most of the time i just don't make the effort. It is a small world isn't it. I only noticed the house cuz my ex is a lamda chi....

caddd: i will! let me know when you guys are doing stuff, and i'll try and drop by or something, i'm in t.o. til mid-september

Can't say that i've been to the brunny or the maddy, only eintsteins for u of t bars...

Liv4ChiO: Please email me, I would love to meet up with you while you are in Toronto (my email is in my profile).
I work at King & University, live close to Eglinton & Bathurst!

gphi2k: I wish you still worked downtown...I miss having lunch with you!

caddd365: Tridelta's are great! I attended the Panhellenic Luncheon where Natalie Maniates won the TAP scholarship.
I also know 2 TriDelta alumnae: Laura Knapp and Alice Thornton! Also Samantha Potes is very nice, too.

Yay! Canadian Greeks!

Maybe I don't post enough as gphi2k didn't say me...but I am a canuck too! And as Vera (SisterPlum) is very busy with wedding plans, I'll speak for her as well! She too is a crazy canuck up here in Nova Scotia.
As for myself I am an Army Brat who has lived in NS, Calgary, Trenton ONT and the big TO! I AM CANADIAN!
Glad to see there is a great number of us on here!
