Would you uproot your life, leaving behind your family, your job etc if you dont like the weather in a country.

(Obviously theres always more than one advantage of moving someplace but to build a life somewhere, would weather be top 3 factors in choosing where to live).

      Not worried about the housing crisis? I see a lot post about it but I don’t really know what is it like. If you have a good job in IT, is it still an issue?

        It’s definitely an issue. I’m saving up some money before moving there next year.

        IT in Canada doesn’t pay that great, not compared to the salaries you see in the US at least.

        It’s incredibly unaffordable in BC, Ontario, and Quebec. Maritimes and prairies are decently affordable.

          Really? IT doesn’t play enough to rent a decent apartment near work? That’s not great.

            It’ll vary depending on the city, but generally not. Finding something affordable near downtown Toronto or Vancouver will be next to impossible, while in smaller cities like Edmonton, Calgary, or Ottawa, it will just be really, really hard.
