I am aware of their conservative government but I hear mixed things about their society.

Some say they’re even more conservative than the USA, and some say they’re kinda open minded and just vote conservative for the gas/petrol.

I’m 22, and I got my orchiectomy (they may restrict HRT so yeah). I just wondered how is living in Edmonton/Calgary, and visiting other places in the province?

Many people asked me if I was Russian in Canada so I can say that I have a white privilege?

I won’t move there but I really wonder as it’s the richest province (GDP per capita).

    I live in Edmonton and love the city. However, I am also a white cis male and have the easiest time navigating a sometimes awkward culture. Edmonton tends to be very liberal, especially as compared to rural Alberta. We have a strong arts culture and parts of the city are very welcoming to people of all walks. If you choose Edmonton, I highly recommend the Whyte Ave area. This is where the largest population of people who are queer live. You will find support for transitioning on a social basis in this area. My wife’s best friend is gay and lives in Calgary; he feels supported thereas well. Whatever you choose, I wish you the best of luck.
