I would love to see best medium and small cities in Canada

I've been to Toronto and Montreal at least half a dozen times each, and I have to agree that I vastly prefer visiting Montreal over Toronto. Toronto is a great city, but Montreal has touches of Europe while being a bigger city that I think blends North America with European sensibilities so well. But, above all, Montreal has hands down some of the best food, consistently, of anywhere I've visited in the world. If you go to an Italian restaurant, it would be shocking if the pasta wasn't fresh made. Every baked good is fresh baked. There's a lot of cool nightlife and it's fun to walk around.

My major consideration of choosing a city to live when I first came to Canada is property price. Before I moved to Canada, I just looked at the housing price of each province and I really seriously considered to live in Fredericton, New Brunswick. But fortunately a lady from a new immigrant service office contacted me and recommended Gatineau, QC, where I am living now. I am really satisfied with this small city. It's just cross the river from Ottawa, I can even see the fireworks set from the parliament hill by simply walking a few minutes to the riverbank. What is amazing is that the house price is only about half that in Ottawa. There are huge Gatineau Park, beach along Ottawa river, safe and friendly neighbourhoods. Just like its slogan, Gatineau pour la vie.

@@charzanboo9940 Learning french from english is not the easiest but also not the hardest. It has a similar but not identical grammar. There is some carry-over in vocabulary, but the french word is usually the lesser used english version, for example "noir" for "black". You can learn to understand it with a headset course like Rosetta, but proper pronunciation requires practice, so at some point you would need to take class lessons if you want to be able to speak it.

Glad that you’ve resumed your videos dude. One of my favorite channels on KZread. You’re brilliant. I wish even to invest and start doing all the countries list, since I’m a geographer and journalist.

Found your channel recently, this stuff is really awesome Something about the commentary feels familiar but eh, probably overthinking it.

Have lived in 3 of the cities mentioned and visited 4 of the others. A nice list of Canada's major urban areas to visit and/or live in with a generally optimistic spin put on each.

Dude, I never realized Montreal had so much unique culture. I knew being part of the French-speaking Quebec areas, you had to either learn French before moving or just hope someone nearby is fluent enough in English to help you understand French if you really wanted to and you were able to move there. My grandma, partly of Swedish ancestry, has a friend that lives in Canada, and they call each other a lot, because my grandma’s friend is so fluent in English and French. Not to mention, so many people used to visit our family’s park a lot from across the country because as for the rest of Canada, so many people coming from across the entire populated country of Canada always have some kind of special connection or even interest in what our park holds when they can afford to host it. Still, the cultural statistics of Montreal must be so amazing, that I can hardly wait to actually go there at least just one time and spend some time there to see just how nice a city Montreal must actually be.

Wish they had also mentioned that we are festival city. I have lived in Edmonton for all except 2 years of my life where I was in Calgary. If I had to move somewhere else in Canada I would choose Montreal as I fell in love with it many years ago. I love all parts of Canada though.

And Calgary is rated so much higher than Edmonton because it has a lot of buildings downtown? It doesn’t have the arts and culture Edmonton has. To me that’s more a marker of a real city.

Montrealer here. As happy as I am to see our city rank in at #1 in your list, I do have to point out that sadly, just like every other major city in Canada, rent has exploded here in the past couple of years mainly due to poor management by our local and provincial governments. So while it is cheaper than Toronto or Vancouver, sadly I don't think it qualifies as "cheap" anymore...

Few corrections on Winnipeg: - You won't need a car to live in Winnipeg - the bus service is quite good and reaches most areas of the city. Additionally, the city has invested a lot into bike paths which are great from may to oct. - The mosquito problem is not nearly as bad as the past - with control programs in place, they are still around but nothing like the 90s - Traffic can be bad - there are less cars on the road, but less road infra to move the cars around. - Having lived in a few of Canada's "nicest cities" - given the affordability, beautiful summers, proximity to lakes, and happier friendlier people - I would rank Winnipeg higher.

Imagine thinking Ottawa and Calgary are better than Vancouver 😂 Has this guy ever been to this country?

If you like the city life Montreal is hands down unbeatable. If you prefer a more quiet life in the suburbs go to Calgary since they got the rockies nearby and lots of sunshine year round. Montreal does not get as cold as Calgary but has a damp climate with lots of cloudy/rainy days throughout the year and endless snowfalls in mid winter. Both cities cost about the same for housing. Toronto or Vancouver are good places to live if you are very wealthy.

Great video about Canada. Please do Mexico next?

Lived in Calgary for almost my entire life and your description is accurate though city population is now over 1.6 million. While winters here are bitter cold, a weather effect called chinooks provide warm, sunny breaks that Montreal doesn't get. And Quebec sales tax is almost 10% compared to no provincial sales tax in Calgary as mentioned. Calgary does lack the old city charm of Montreal and our summers here might not be quite as long.

As a Canadian, I love your wildlife and yes, especially life forms like the mulga snake! Your wildlife and areas have dealt with some very serious blows. A century ago, you had to declare war on rabbits. In recent years, cane toad populations are making their way up to the Kimberly area, am I right? Then most recently, those devastating infernos. I've never seen such a raging disaster like that! Were you folks ever able to save or salvage anything in the wake of that? You like beavers? Great; but they require a lot of wooded forests and streams. They would become a food source for the salties down there, too!

@@FischerFan I agree that so much of our country is completely different to North America/Canada, but the wild west coast of Tasmania is another world.

As for cane toads, they seem to range further south every year, but we have crows that worked out that they need to be flipped over before ingesting. I swear the crow will outlive humans.

​@@DrNutbagExactly! I'm in Manitoba (former Winnipegger) and we have both one of largest Indigienous populations in Canada (especially in the urban areas) and among the highest if not the highest rates of childhood poverty in Canada. That has huge impacts on everything, from crime rates to school outcomes to substance abuse to generational poverty. It's not unique to Winnipeg, but is acute there simply due to size. Over 75% of the entire provincial population lives in Winnipeg and it's adjacent communities.

The only surprise for me in these rankings was where you put Calgary. I've been there often enough to say I'd rather drive through southern BC to get to Saskatchewan than fly into the Calgary airport and then try to find my way out...

Canadian here… You may of inadvertently used a cut screen from Halifax for Hamilton On. I’m also disappointed you didn’t include a city from the Atlantic provinces.

25 years ago my wife and I spent a year travelling across Canada (and some time in the US) deciding where to set down roots. Based on what we found back then we 100% agree with the list. We chose Ottawa (but Calgary was a close 2nd). Our kids have since moved to Toronto and Montreal, perfect places to live in your 20s. So I 100% agree with the rankings.

as someone who has lived in edmonton since i was born, edmonton isnt actually as bad as everyone makes it seem. there is lots to do, the zoo, the telus world of science, the mall, as well as the many nature walks you can visit. its true its cold, but then the summer is beautiful. and the only real dangers are downtown at night. the houses are extremely cheap, and the economy is somewhat stable. as well, we are relatively close to jasper national park and banff national park. its really not that bad...

I just came back from Quebec city, it was amazing.

I caught a pretty bad stomach bug on the plane trip to Montreal [I think] and I still had a pretty great time

fun fact about Winnipeg, if you look at city on a map, you'll see that the highway encircles it, rather than go directly through the city. This is because Winnipeg is home to a fair amount of research into contagious diseases, and the city is designed to be locked down as quick as possible.

@@MrManfly Actually that may hold true for Edmonton but living in Calgary for many many years, i can tell you that it is still easier to cut through the city using the freeways that cut through the city. The ring road i find is convenient if you live on the edge of the city and want to go to another point on the edge of the city in the same quadrant. As for the decision to build the ring roads, i don't think that was decided by the cities. I believe it was a provincial transportation decision in order to improve transportation routes for transport trucks to ship from Alberta to US and Mexican Markets. The ring roads are managed by the provincial governments.
