How is Ontario? I'm not like most Americans that hate Canada for no reason. If I had to move out of the US Canada would be the first place I go.
Ontario is a nice spot to be, I'd recommend Ottawa if possible. I've spent a lot of time in British Columbia, the weather is amazing and scenery astounding. Canada has a good quality of life, great place to raise a family...much cheaper to live if you make under $80k as well. Taxes here are utterly ridiculous, but what can you do?
I might have to make a trip up there in the next year. I'll keep that in mind. Any things you'd recommend a first timer to do while up there?
Depending on your age...
Clubs in Canada are a ton of fun, lots of energetic/friendly people. Lots of great restaurants in Ottawa and Niagara areas. Visit the museums in Ottawa, CN Tower and various art galleries in Toronto. Visit algonquin park to do some moose watching, canoeing and camping. Lots of lakes and outdoors stuff to do if you want to get out of the cities. Whitewater rafting if spring, skiing if winter, lots of nature oriented things to do. We have several Imax's, Toronto zoo is pretty famous...
Kinda on topic...BEER! American beer is utter crap, get yourself some *real* Canadian and European beer. The stuff in the US is watered down and tastes like water, I honestly have no idea how you guys can stand it. Micro-brews in the states is your only saving grace...such a shame. Even your American beers like Coors and Bud are brewed stronger up here...it just wouldn't sell otherwise.
Anyway...tons of stuff to do here. Cities are large (TO = 5mill, Ottawa > 2mill ppl)...lots of outdoors and culture.
