This is kind of interesting, but that's incredibly isolated. Living out there full-time isn't just a bit of a departure from a big city, by Canadian terms it's about the width of British Columbia, just to get back to the city where your friends might be if you're coming from Toronto. In their Maclean's interview, they remark that they're on the same latitude as Winnipeg, but Winnipeg is already incredibly isolated as it is from anywhere else. To get from Winnipeg to Toronto it would take 28 hrs of driving if you're silly enough to not fly, or 14 in the other direction to get to Calgary, assuming you're not stopping for long in the smaller "cities" along the way.<p>For that reason, anyone making that kind of a leap has some level of respect from me, it's not a move I'd make. Although I do drive that far sometimes to see some friends and family, it's like a bi-yearly thing at best.
