Any Canadians here?

Just want to get to know more about HK members here. Non-Canadians are welcomed to say hello too!

I'm a CBC and have been living here for 10 years. Never been to HK prior, but I love it here!

I've been here for 2 years now.

Too bad my e90 is in Toronto and not in HK. My civic here would look too out of place in a e9x meet...

I'm from Winnipeg, does that count? haha.

Although I've been living in HK for 10+ years, so I can qualify as a local HongKonger.

No hockey to watch in HK which sucks (unless you get ASN on NowTV which mostly show the American teams anyway). And on that note, the leafs stinks! haha (I'm more of a Jets fan, but since that team is no longer there, I like the Red Wings, haha).

Hey JohnMan! I miss watching hockey since moving here in 2000!!! Teemu Selanne was one of my favourite players in the 90's playing for the Jets. Was sad to see your team leave for Phoenix. I'm still a Leafs fan but not so "die-hard" since moving here. I agree, the Leafs stink!!! I feed my sports cravings watching live video streaming online...can't be bothered paying for NowTV.

I'm a long time Canucks fan (since I lived in Vancouver before moving to Toronto). Had ASN, but got fed up with the low amount of Canucks game they show. I used to stream as well, but due to the unstable internet connection provided at my condo, it got annoying with all the lag. Now I have the Centre Ice package and I don't regret it one bit! I can watch games during breaks at school

We should have a meet to catch the playoffs!

Die hard Nucks fan over here too! The CNY holiday was great, got to see 3 games in the past week (including the Chicago game). I too have subscribed to Centre Ice. The quality is superb!

How do I subcribe to this? I spent time in Vancouver for my postgrad studies so I am sort of a Canucks fan, notwithstanding they haven't won the Stanley Cup so far. The thing I missed most was Hockey Night in Canada (the only thing worth watching on CBC) and watching Don Cherry spew out his politically incorrect (but hilarious) tirades dress in his usually absurd jacket and tie.

And also I get to do long drives to Whistler, Jasper or to Lake of the Woods in my E36( my first car)...man those were the days. The twisty sea to sky highway is classic 3 series territory. Between then and coming to HK, I had no car until I got this E90 recently, so it was a long gap with no driving, haha.

Subscribe here. You'll be able to watch all the games through the internet. And for each game, you'll be able to choose either the home or away broadcast. With the games that are on HNIC, you'll be able to catch Don Cherry's sideshow as well .

+1 on the amazing drive the sea to sky highway offers. I got the chance to drive on that last time I visited Vancouver, and it was lots of fun, even though I was just driving my rental Ford Fusion....

The Chicago game was a good one eh? And yea, the quality is excellent, so much better than what ASN shows on tv.

I've been subscribing to Center Ice for the past few years now, I'm glad that we're not limited to only one feed anymore. Its kinda nice to be able to watch local commercials as well (lame I know but feels nice).

I thought I was the only one that felt that way... the commercials makes me feel more connected with what's going on back in Canada, but also makes me wanna go grab a wrap and a double-double at tim hortons
