Welcome! I was compelled to start this page mainly because I felt that most of the travelogues posted here are very inaccurate!! (in my opinion) The Mall and other attractions around Edmonton are definitely NOT overpriced (as some people have stated in their travelogues for Edmonton) - in fact, everything is very cheap compared to the rest of Canada, especially with no PST (provincial sales tax). And if you're from outside Canada, don't forget to apply for a GST refund when you leave.
Why anyone would want to come visit Edmonton is beyond me, but I guess you're here looking for info! If you have any further questions, feel free to email me and hopefully it won't be fitered out by my spam filters! |
A little about me: I'm a twenty-something year old, born and raised in Edmonton. Also, I'm Chinese (one of the many growing communities in multi-cultural Edmonton). So far I've travelled to: Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, Japan, Vancouver, Toronto, Las Vegas, California, Seattle, and passed through many places inbetween. |

Juniper333 Wed Sep 16, 2009 20:57 UTC The "traffic circle" with traffic lights DOES NOT use the same rules as a traffic circle. Use the traffic lights as you would any other intersection, it's not actually a traffic circle. | CdnJane Sat Feb 17, 2007 16:42 UTC Excellent tips and a beginning to your pages... I agree that Edmonton has had a bad rap. It's a nice city - and I love not having to pay PST as well as GST! Add more, please.... and enjoy Hamilton! | dsantosh Tue Jun 15, 2004 15:17 UTC Great start. awaiting more. | VTShounen Wed Jun 18, 2003 17:41 UTC Definitely agree with you - too much misinformation on Edmonton on VT! Keep those tips coming. |
