So, you probably like to rent then, like a downtown apartment, correct? If so, you'll pay very high rents in Toronto or Vancouver. I'm not sure what the rent situation is like in Montreal. Here in Winnipeg you could get a very VERY nice downtown apartment for $700-$800 per month, but more modest yet still decent apartments go for $500 to $700..... and remember, that's Canadian money. Knock off close to 30% to figure out what it would be in US dollars.
For basic cost of living, few larger cities in Canada can match us.
Plus we have the 2nd largest French community in Canada west of Quebec (but no separatists), beautiful river walks along 3 beautiful rivers, close to 700,000 people here so we're not a gi-normous metropolis like some of the others but still big enough to maintain all forms of big-city entertainments and amenities, the most restaurants per-capita of any city in the world, and we have one of the top 10 beaches in the world less than an hour away.
But our winters can be brutal on the unprepared.
Every place no matter where you go has it's longs and shorts.
Oh yeah, and our women are absolutely without a doubt hot hot hot. There are an incredible % of hot women here. Must be something in the water.
