All 10 Provinces in Canada Ranked WORST to BEST (BRITISH REACTION) 

Being ex-military, I've either lived in or worked in most provinces and territories. Each has their own charm, their own pluses and their own minuses. To me, none is the best. Each is best in their own way.

As a British Columbian, yes, I have to agree that Newfoundlanders are the most friendly people in Canada. Consider: no other province has a literal Tony Award-winning Broadway play about *their* friendliness!

All Canadians should drive and see this whole country to get a perspective of how large and diverse it is.😊

as you can probably guess, I am a Canadian; I have lived in Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, British Columbia and Saskatchewan, and have travelled through Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. I still have Newfoundland and the Territories on my 'bucket list'. Each province I have visited and/or lived in has its own unique beauty, charm, and idiosyncrasies; so I would rank them from good to best, and never use the word "worst" for any of them.

I'm a New Brunswicker and I've been to almost all the provinces in Canada and I found that Newfoundlanders are indeed the most friendly.

I'm from Manitoba and I've lived across Canada, this is an accurate take, although you can live pretty happy there. Also, the Folklorama festival in the first two weeks of August is absolutely the best thing you will see. Multi-cultural celebration that takes weeks do it all, performers come from around the world.

I live in Manitoba. When I was young I wanted to move somewhere else but as I travelled to most provinces and know people who live in basically everyone of them I realized I am very lucky to live here. The winters may get frigid but most days it is cold but beautiful and sunny. We go for 2 walks a day. There are people who love the snow and the four seasons. Not everyone likes summer all year. We go cross country skiing, tobogganing, icefishing and snowmobiling. My friend lives in Vancouver BC and she says in the winter it is maybe not that cold but it rains so much that going for a walk is not enjoyable at all because it is not warm but damp and cold. The latest poll for the most unhappy people in Canada was BC because the people who move there expect it to be better. We do no have many humid days in the summer. I hate humidity and the last 5 years because of less rain we have had no mosquitos. It did rain a lot this last spring and we had more but not that bad. Young people here can afford homes, not like in some other provinces. I never heard that we are the most unhappy and die sooner than anywhere else. I would love to see the survey. I found that every province has good and bad things, no place is better than the other. I appreciate what you said . Thank you!!!

I live in Vancouver, born here, still here. I’ve never lived in Newfoundland, never even visited (only province left that I haven’t visited). Regardless, when someone says, “Newfoundlanders are the friendliest people in all of Canada!”, I’m like, “yeah, that tracks. I’ll give them that. Not gonna dispute it”. 😂 I’ve never met a Newfoundlander that wasn’t the sweetest thing alive.

I moved to Manitoba right before the pandemic in 2020, from Ontario, specifically Toronto. it is awesome here, people are friendly it has a great art and food scene. the winter is hard but the summer is great with almost no humidity compared with southern Ontario where you melt in the shade. Mosquitoes are bad but lots of places have screens and as with the winter it is soooooo sunny all the time. the big Prairie Sky is amazing .

One of the big things I think of as well when I think of Nova Scotia is it’s strong Celtic and Gaelic culture! It is kept very much alive and thriving though it’s music, language, traditions, festivals and events! Nova Scotia is Latin meaning new Scotland.

Throughout my 20s, I lived in the Northwest Territories for 7 and a half years. In the capital of Yellowknife and then one of the settlements. I had an incredible time and fell in love with the NWT. I now live in Alberta and wouldn't hesitate to go up there again.

Prince Edward Islander here! Love your enthusiasm for our country! Our capital city has "town" in the name, which I think is quite telling. Over the last decade, rent/buying rates here have gotten completely out of control, even compared to provinces with a higher cost of living. I work in construction (generally a different house every day), and while many jobs are for longtime residents, lots of jobs are for unoccupied houses bought site-unseen by folks from away (mainland or international) looking for a covid haven or a summer retreat for a few weeks out of the year. Not to mention the many "low-income" housing developments being thrown up year by year. Between that and the massive hurdle of obtaining land, it can be rough to get settled as a young or not-so-young local looking to stake a claim of your own. Those of my generation who stayed in the province after school have to hustle at multiple jobs/have many roommates to make ends meet, or settle into generational housing with their family. For example, my aunt and uncle live in their parent's old house, and their house went to their kids. I'm given to understand this is more common outside North America, but it's new here and can carry a level of shame for some folks based on that. After Hurricane Fiona it will be interesting to see how many flattened woodlots get cleared and sold as residential property vs how many get replanted. Despite all that, the lifestyle is easygoing. This is especially true in the rural communities where you will learn to love the neighbour with the snowblower on their tractor or who happens to be an experienced roofer when you have a leaky attic. If you can find a role to fill in that kind of environment you can barter your way into a pretty leisurely life with honest work and a willingness to learn. Cheers from Down East!

I live in Manitoba, a lot of people have a lot of bad to say about it, but its a good place to live. Ive lived in BC and for me there’s just too many people. Manitoba has a lot of culture, we have a ton of festivals all year round. It’s flat and full of trees so outdoor activities are in abundance even in winter. You acclimatise, but the weather can be extreme, but we all love to talk about it. Over all its a friendly and moderately calm place to live. I love to see and experience the world, I even spent a month in Malaysia (mostly KL) and loved it, but its nice to come home to the peace and quiet of Manitoba.

I live in Winnipeg, it has its moments like everywhere else, but overall the people are friendly, if you are stopped on the side of the road, it won't take long before someone (or several someones) will pull over to see if you need help. Also, Lake Winnipeg is so large it spawns it's own storms and they can come up quickly. It's a beautiful Province with a diverse ecosystem and cultures. But we do have a lot of mosquitoes.

I live in Manitoba, have family across the country and have traveled to most provinces at least once. I wouldn't want to move away, we have a fantastic combination of being on the edge of the great prairies and the great Canadian Shield. The lakes and parks, hunting and fishing, are just amazing. I also have to disagree with a couple things, the "majority of winter days" are not -30 or below. We do get very cold but its usually for only a few weeks out of the winter during the coldest months (january/february) and most of the rest of the winter is in the -20's which is honestly not as bad as it sounds. Summer months can be humid and full of mosquitos but again only for the middle of summer. Our spring, early summer, late summer, and early autumn are amazing times of the year to be outside with beautiful weather and less bugs.

I love your videos & I love watching your reactions to what you see! Your attitude, humility, and genuine surprises when you learn something new are awesome! Please do a video on our territories - most Canadians don’t even know much about them. Thank you for spotlighting Canada ❤

I lived in Nova Scotia all my life until I joined the military and had to move to New Brunswick for 8 years, and now Alberta, for the last 6 years. As much as I love it here in Alberta I'd move back to Nova Scotia in a heart beat.

Hello. I live in Saskatchewan. Never had much problem with crime myself, but i live in the countryside. Which is why i'm writing. People have a tendency to drive through the province on the number 1 highway and see farmland and think that's it. No. Just North of that highway is the Qu'Appelle Valley. It's a beautiful valley made by glaciers. Lakes, hills, wildlife. The North is the land of lakes and forests. It's beautiful and still very wild. Love it up there. We also have sand dunes. Forests, lakes, rolling hills and valleys and a little piece of desert. Saying Saskatchewan is just flat farmland is from people who have never really seen the province.

Nova Scotia, New Scotland is the best place by far, a lot of hidden gems here not touched on by the video. Cape Breton is almost more Scottish than Scotland the road signs are in english and gaelic all along the Northern shore. Little places like Canso and small towns like Pictou where you can hop the ferry to PEI and back for a day trip. University towns like Antigonish Hub towns like the New Glasgow area and Truro and Debert... you can dig fossils in Parrsboro or go tidal bore rafting... Cape Split 1200ft overlooking the highest tides in the world... Windsor and all through the Valley, historical sites like port royal and louisbourg. Yarmouth and Lunenburg where the bluenose was built.. Halifax and Dartmouth when the tall ships come and they have a great nightlife... Mahone Bay ...loaded with sealife the whole South Shore littered with gorgeous lil islands.. the caves known as the ovens... Peggys Cove...Sherbrooke Village... Theres so much here...omg Pugwash go wine tasting in ice wine country, Amherst is a border town with New Brunswick which is actually a great place. The city of Sydney, hop the Ferry to Newfoundland where those people are the salt of the earth there ...Nova Scotias in the heart of the Maritimes its just the best place in Canada.

When I lived in the NWT. The funniest thing you could do to an unruly neighbour is to fertilize there lawn. In the summer there is 20 hours of daylight. That bastard has to mow his lawns three times a week. I only had one neighbour I didn’t get along with but he was an American. For a $50 bag of lawn fertilizer, I kept his focus on his lawn!🤣

The first thing you have to remember is that this video is comparing the 10 beautiful provinces (and territories) to each other. They all have something wonderful to offer. I have lived in Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia. Vancouver Island has been my home now for many years and I have no wish to live anywhere else except maybe Newfoundland. Vancouver Island for its beauty and moderate climate and Newfoundland for its wild terrain, charm and overwhelmingly friendly people. I guess I am partial to islands.

I was surprised to see Manitoba as 10th, mostly because if I were to move, it would be there. Manitoba’s north is absolutely stunning. Piscu Falls is my favourite place on earth.

Heyo! Newfoundlander here. The guy in the video, like most people not from here, pronounced Newfoundland wrong. The way you pronounced it the first time, with the A in "land" having more gravity, is the correct way to pronounce Newfoundland. That's one of our biggest pet peeves: when someone doesn't know how to pronounce the name of our province correctly 😂 As for Labrador, climate-wise it's a lot like the territories. The winters up there are arguably a lot worse than here on the island, because the northernmost tip of its landmass is in the Arctic Circle. As a whole though, us Newfoundlanders and Labradorians try to be good to people that come here from away. We do have a reputation of being some of the nicest and funniest people in the country (of which we are very proud of).

I'm a French Canadian from Québec and I can honestly say that I love living here. I'm fluent in both languages and have traveled across our beautiful country. Each province has it's own charm and cultures. We also tend to be very proud of our country as a whole. It isn't perfect, far from it, yet it's an an awesome country to live in. If the USA is a melting pot of cultures, we are a mosaïque of cultures. Canadians will be the first to complain about certain aspects of life here but we know down deep that we have it good. I'm proud to say that in every province I have met kind and generous people. In general, Canadians tend to be caring of others and will often go out of their way for them. Also I cannot stress enough how kind the people of Newfoundland are. It can actually be a little overwhelming but is dampered by how genuine they are. The absolute best thing that can happen to you is having your car breakdown in Newfoundland. A simple "Do you need any help?" from a passing resident will end up with you spending a week in their guestroom, meeting all their family and neighbors. They will feed you massive amounts of food and quite a few alcoholic beverages. Before you know it your car is fixed and you have made friends for life. If you've never spent an evening around a kitchen table with a bunch of Newfoundlanders eating salt cod, drinking beer and Newfoundland Screech, then you have never truly lived. 😂😂

I guess I’m a rare bird….” a happy Manitoban”. I was born in Tofino on Vancouver Island, but have lived most of my life in Manitoba. I have been retired for a number of years now. When I worked I worked with “ happy” people. Scenery wise we don’t have the beautiful mountains, but considering we are a prairie province we are not totally flat either. We do have the Turtle Mountains and quite a few hilly areas Riding Mountain National Park is beautiful. We have many beautiful lakes and great Cotta ging areas. There is also a great deal of history in this province.

Not sure where this guy got his data from but most winter days are not -30 in Winnipeg. January is the coldest month with an average temperature low of -18

Remember "Crime rates" are statistical averages, they always tend to distort high in low population areas. ie: If you had 1 major crime in your town last year, and 2 this year, then you are seeing a "Massive Crime Wave"... a doubling in the number of crimes! This is not to say that there aren't certain issues - high rates of alcoholism, etc... but it is not strictly an "Apples to Apples" comparison.

One other thing to bear in mind about Canada is that its size often allows locals to keep places to themselves. There might be the places you see in tourist guides and on maps, but there are often areas that are quiet alternatives that people who live there just don't talk about. Lake Louise and Morraine Lake in Banff might be beautiful, but they are jam packed with tourists and I assure you, that's not where the locals would go. In my area, there are whole towns, lakes, waterfalls, islands etc. that locals simply don't go to - there are alternatives

I was born and raised, and still live in Manitoba. Great people, comparably light traffic, great food from a variety of cultures, great music and arts scene, lakes, swimming, camping, hiking, cross country skiing...and festivals! We also have a large French population. Yes, crime and poverty are issues as they are everywhere. But hey, whoever doesn't like us can stay where they are. 😉 Would love to see you doing a video in Winnipeg one day!

Live in Alberta now but grew up in Manitoba and love the province and still consider Winnipeg home, its a fantastic city, Royal Winnipeg Ballet, world class art gallery, museums, opera, symphony, the Forks Market, a super interesting Legislation Building with the Golden Boy, Assiniboine Park which is larger than Grand Central Park in NY. Folklorama the oldest festival of its kind in the world brings all the cultures which live in the province together to share the drink, music, food and dance from everywhere. Folk Fest is world renowned, and there really are to many festivals to list. Excellent food, the widest temperature range on the planet from coldest to hottest, and of course lakes, several have white sand beaches. As I said I love it there. Ontario is huge and has so much to offer, Quebec is unique and has amazing architecture, Nova Scotia is stunningly beautiful, Saskatchewan is well just kinda there, Alberta has the Rockies, lived in Banff for 2 years, just awesome, B.C. is wonderful but very expensive, lived for a couple of years in the arctic, Northwest Territories and Nunavut blew my mind to see swans up there, they go to breed. The whole country is awesome and no matter where you are the sunrises and sunsets are stunning and the northen light are always beautiful.

Quickly becoming my favorite RU-vid channel!

I'm happy this video has Manitoba at the bottom of the list, it keeps it & Winnipeg as the hidden treasures they are. 😉

In terms of natural beauty, BC is the place to visit. There are the Rockies in the east and the Cascade mountain range in the west, both spectacular. In between there is a huge variety - rolling ranch land, desert, wine country, lakes, etc. Vancouver Island (one of my favorites) is also a must to visit and explore.

I am a Manitoban but have travelled from Nova Scotia to B.C. several times. I have not been to Newfoundland, PEI or any of the Territories. If I were to move anywhere, it would be to Ottawa or Stratford, Ontario. Stratford is a beautiful, quaint, small city (about 45,000 to 50,000 people) and is known for the Shakespeare Theatre Festival. Although the city does produce plays other than Shakespeare. It is an old city by Ontario standards and the majority of the buildings are Victorian and Edwardian and the public parks are immaculately kept. I found the people there to be very friendly and kind and welcoming. Ottawa is my first choice of city to move to for many reasons. Firstly, it is an easy city to get to know and get around in. It has a very good transit (bus) system as well as a train system. The history of that city (buildings going back to the early 1800's), world class Museums, the National Art Gallery of Canada, restaurants and bistro's and all sorts of tourist venues keep drawing me back there. Plus I feel very safe in Ottawa. I have been out by myself at Midnight to 1:00 a.m. and had absolutely no problems at all. And for a Senior woman with mobility issues, that is huge. The downtown core has Federal, Provincial and City land and each is policed by the RCMP (Federal), the Ontario Provincial Police or City of Ottawa Police Dept. so if you don't find 1 cop, you'll find another. It is also a bilingual city, so it is a good place to learn French without having to know it to get by. Montreal is only about 2 1/2 hours away and the 1,000 Islands are about 1 1/2 hours away so great for getaways.

I'm from Regina, southern Saskatchewan. My (parents') home, growing up, is at the northern edge of the city. All I had to do, every evening in mid-late summer, was to open the front door and sit on the steps and watch the Northern Lights. So beautiful.

I live in Alberta and yes the economy has suffered, I’m in the medical field so haven’t felt it myself but have seen and heard about lay offs, I think every province has its pros and cons. I am visiting the east coast of Canada this summer and cannot wait to explore it!! Love your clips btw, keep them coming! 😊

I live in Pei my street is on the video you watched. Love it Canada's food island Nova Scotia is home and that Province is truly Awesome ..And YES Newfoundlander's are the some of the friendliest and best people you can ever know. Share a bottle of Screech and yeah have friends for life

Canadian here ! Born and raised in Toronto,, have lived in Ottawa, as well as a few smaller cities in Ontario. Have been all over Canada, and quite frankly , you couldn't go wrong no matter where you settled. Just remember when they quote stats, thats from Canada as a whole . All in all compared with alot of other countries, Canada gets high marks all round.

Edmonton, Alberta is the best city in Canada for young people right now. It’s already the youngest, being the only big city with more millennials than boomers. It’s affordable, homes in central, mature communities for under 600k. Fast growing. Best schools for kids and the UofA is the best university in all the prairies. River Valley is insanely nice. Ice District and Rogers Place are amazing. Whyte Ave and the food scene is super strong. Much greener than Calgary and more sunny than most other big cities. Rec centres and parks are amazing. Wages are very high. Lots of things to love about places live Vancouver and Toronto, but tough to break into those cities without a relatives money. (Over 70% of those buying homes in those cities are being gifted down payments by family members…). Also, in Edmonton, you can actually make stuff happen, which is rare for a big city of 1.5mil. Getting involved in local orgs and Boards is really encouraged. Edmonton is leading North American in urban planning reforms (removing parking minimums, infill, and ADUs). And has a young, progressive council.

I live in the Vancouver area but for a while I lived and worked in Yukon. I worked at an exploration camp for months at a time in the spring/summer/fall. Later, I lived at a remote mine for 2 weeks on, then off for 2 weeks at Whitehorse. It was an amazing time. Super cold in the winter, but it's not hard to handle with decent clothing. At the mine, some geologists came to visit in the winter and instead of staying in the bunkhouse with the rest of us, they dug a cave in the snow and slept there. The best thing was working at night. I would take a break from the lab and go outside to see the northern lights. They are incredibly magical and on some rare nights, when the winds stop, you can actually hear them. Occasionally we would drive from the mine to the nearest village. The mine itself was "officially" dry so that was the closest place to get alcohol. The first year I was at the exploration camp, there were nearly not mosquitoes but after that, they were present in huge swarms. Girls were wearing burning mosquito coils in their hair to ward off the critters. We also had to deal with grizzly bears but as we had dogs, they mostly stayed away. In the summer, the Yukon is a great place to vacation. The days are super long due to the latitude. Whitehorse has lots to do and see but the big draw is Dawson City. It's a tiny town of the gold rush era that comes alive in the summer with lots of historical interest.

Nova Scotia literally means New Scotland and celebrates Scottish culture. Many Nova Scotians identify as Scottish Canadian. The success of Scotland colonizing Nova Scotia can be seen all around the province. Also, Ontario celebrates the largest Highland Games Festival outside of Scotland. It's obvious Scotland is a deep part of our heritage here in Canada, especially on the East Coast. It's quite possible you had some ancestors immigrate here since tens of thousands of Gaelic speaking people travelled here centuries ago.

I suppose that some Province has to be considered the worst, but it’s like trying to decide what your least favourite flavour of ice cream is, it’s still pretty good. I’m sure that a lot of Manitobans would consider my province of Ontario as one of their least favourites.

omg, so many canadian musicians. Joni Mitchell, Gordon Lightfoot, Celine Dion, Nelly Furtado, Feist, Diana Krall, Paul Anka, Sarah McLaughlin, Michael Buble, Shania Twain, Shawn Mendes, Avril Lavigne, Neil Young, the list goes on and on, and so many bands, Kiss, Nickelback (love them or hate them, we mostly just make fun of them), April Wine, Loverboy, Guess Who, Arcade Fire, Tragically Hip, Rush. Lots of great talent. The territories are harsh. In the winter, you get maybe 4 hours of daylight per day and it's cold. But, in the summer, you get 20 hours of daylight and it's warm. If you can handle the winter, it's great, but a lot of people only last one or two years there. Crime in the far north is a legitimate issue. It is almost always linked to substance abuse. Many northern communities have become dry as a response. Let me give you my two cents, as I've been to every province a number of times. That's a hard knock on Manitoba, it's not so bad. Although they do say, the mosquitoes are fine until they drop you. Newfoundland is a lovely place. The geography is rugged, kind of like Cornwall, and if you enjoy the fierce power of the Atlantic, you will love it there. Newfoundlanders are probably the most welcoming people in the country, as they demonstrated when so many planes were grounded there during 9/11. To be fair, the winter can be brutal. Some places get 5 metres of snow a year. For me, PEI is the most beautiful province in the country. It has gorgeous beaches, the secondary roads are a distinctive red clay, the lobster is plentiful, and you could not find nicer people in the country. Why this video puts them so far down the list is a mystery to me. New Brunswick. Most boring province in the federation. As I go through this video, I get more annoyed. The only criteria they seeM to consider are house prices, average income, and crime statistics. That is a very narrow focus. Saskatchewan is not a crime infested province, rather a friendly and welcoming place. One of the most impressive things about Saskatchewan is that most of it is completely flat, so you can see huge distances and even entire weather systems in the sky. There are also vibrant cities, the capital Regina, and Saskatoon, nicknamed "the Paris of the prairies". Halifax is a great city. The only downside is that is it very far from everything else. For example, to drive to the next big city in Canada (Montreal) is 12 hours. Vancouver is indeed lovely, although a little inward-looking. Victoria has a great climate for Canada, but is the number one retirement destination for a reason. Depends what you want. Oh, Alberta. Whether you'll love living here depends a lot on your politics. It's by far the most conservative places in the country. If that's your thing, and you think fossil fuels are still the future, it could be the place for you.

I grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba and Loved it. I go back to visit whenever I can. Sure, the winters are not great and mosquitoes are not fun, but they are more prevalent outside the city. The great thing about Manitoba is that there are many wonderful lakes and beaches where people own cottages. There are also many great summer festivals. And, Winnipeg is very diverse in terms of having people from many countries living there. As a matter of fact, every August there is a major cultural festival called Folklorama, which runs for a few weeks. Finally, there are so many concerts, a lot of great theatre, the Royal Winnipeg, and wonderful museums and art galleries. As for Newfoundland - I love it there! The culture is quite different and people are extremely friendly. They have a very distinctive accent and I am told that being on "The Rock", as it is sometimes called, is very similar to Ireland. The video that you watched is quite good but the negative aspects that are highlighted are not as bad as they are portrayed, in my opinion. Currently, I live in BC, but the move happened because of my husband's work. If you want to move to BC I am sure you would love it but the cost of living is very high. My son recently moved back to Japan with his family because he could not make enough money to afford the housing. They lived with me for two years. And yes, you can live in many parts of Quebec without knowing French.

I'm from New Brunswick, while it's useful to know French here you definitely don't need it to get by unless you're in northern NB. Also the French here and the French in Quebec is quite different. The cost of living has significantly increased over the past few years as well as the population has grown.

I live in the old part of Quebec city and I love it. I would recommend 100%. It is true it could be difficult for someone not speaking french but we are making the step if you do the same and always ends up understanding each other. BTW I started watching your videos as a coincidence and I love the way you talk. Some words you say sound similar to the way we pronounce them in Qc french. Keep up with the good job!

I was born, raised, educated and continue to live in the Metro Vancouver area. I have been to Alberta, Saskatchewan, North West Territories, Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island). All in all, there's no place like home. I know some family friends the live in the Halifax area and they are very happy there. The Maritimes sometimes get the remnants of Atlantic Hurricanes that come up from US East Coast. With family and Scouting, I have camped in several Alpine areas in BC, on the Sunshine Coast and Southern Vancouver Island. As a pre-teen, I summered with the family in the Okanagan Valley, visited Wells Gray park and the old Gold Rush town of Barkerville. In high school, our social studies class took a Cruise on a BC Coastal freighter from Vancouver to Hyder, Alaska with a side trip to what is now known as Haida Gwaii (aka Queen Charlotte Islands). The BC coast has many Fjords like the Nordic European countries. The Metro Vancouver area has a Major League Soccer team, National Hockey League team, Canadian Football League team along with Junior hockey leagues, and several levels of Lacrosse leagues. Some of the 2026 FIFA World Cup games will be played Vancouver and Toronto. There are two significant Universities in the Metro area plus other universities on Vancouver Island, the BC Interior and in Northern BC. When it comes to culture, we have everything from Broadway Shows, to the Fringe festival, Punk rock, to classic rock , to Jazz and Symphony. Besides being on the coast, the Metro Vancouver area has many lakes that support a variety of recreational options. We even have a few French settlements. Note: The French language of Canada is not the same French as France (we have a lot of Canadianisms). I am enjoying seeing Canada through your eyes, it reminds why Canada is such a special place. 😎

I have spent 4 summers working in the Yukon and fell in love with it. It not only has a pristine beauty that is breathtaking, it has fascinating history that definitely deserves a video on its' own. The history of the Klondike Gold Rush is still alive and well today in the gold rush town of Dawson City. Also the history of the building of the Alaska Highway through Canada (Yukon and BC) and into Alaska during WW2 is also fascinating as it was one of the greatest engineering feats of all time. In fact, this year is the 75th anniversary of its' opening to the public in 1948 (built in 1942 in a record time of 8 months (1700 miles) in some of the most rugged terrain on the planet!) Also, watch "Operation Yellow Ribbon" to hear the remarkable story about how the small town of Gander, Newfoundland helped out during 9/11. A must see!

Anyone I know who have moved to the Yukon for a short term, fall in love with the territory and never leave . And the a teacher friend who taught in Manitoba often talks about the better education there. So this is so subjective.

I grew up on Vancouver Island. Moved to Vancouver in 2015 and was amazed how 'big city' it was. It was definitely incredibly expensive the entire time living there.

Thanks for your reaction and comments about my homeland. I have enjoyed your videos. The East Coast was settled in large part by the English with a healthy mix of Irish and Scottish so you personally can most likely relate to the language and culture of the area. However, there is something to be said either for or against each and every province and/or territory. It is all a matter of personal taste and lifestyle. I have travelled across this country from sea to sea several times. The beauty and diversity of landscapes is amazing and I found the people to be friendly and helpful everywhere. Having said that I do realize that people are people and although the vast majority are friendly there will always be exceptions. This is a wonderful country and no matter what your preferences you could easily find a place to suit any lifestyle.

Southern Ontario gets very humid too as it's sandwiched between 3 of the Great Lakes. Humidex (what the temperature feels like) readings sometimes breach 40C. Fun fact: the Newfoundland breed of dog comes from Newfoundland and as you may have guessed the Labrador Retriever (Lab for short) comes from Labrador. Nova Scotia was the 2nd fastest growing province last year and has a ton going for it: quaint, charming, history, mild climate, great universities. East coast navy is based there.

I live in NB and it's certainly not lacking in fun. There is lots to do. People are friendly, there are great restaurants, places to drink if you're into that. Good schools, average weather, .

Quebec is fabulous. It is certainly incumbent to learn French but if you go to bilingual Montreal you can certainly get by with English while you are working on your French.

Love your videos, Mert. Keep up the good work. Just one correction regarding a pronunciation. We don't say "negative 40", we say "minus 40". My children once said, "Negative." They were corrected. It's a Canadian thing.

I am from British Columbia but have visited all 10 provinces and stayed with people on their homes (touring with a band). Can confirm the fact that Newfoundlanders are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and genuine. Like, you really notice it. Also, when I was there, the people were firm but friendly in saying "It's Newfoundland, understand?" They didnt seem to like the "noofinland" pronunciation used by the narrator in the video.

As someone whos lived throughout Canada this list is pretty accurate. I did similar research to decide where I would move to and came to the same conclusion. Been living in Montreal, Quebec and have no regrets! Although I do speak French

Vancouver and Victoria on Vancouver island are beautiful places to live, and you still get all the amenity of the city while having access to the mountains at your doorstep. And the climate is great.

I live in Halifax Nova Scotia. It the best place to live in my opinion. I've raised 2 children, a boy and a girl. It's awesome for families, friendly and has everything you could want. We have many parks in Halifax and are close to beaches for the summer. We have restaurants featuring foods from all over the world. We have several historic sites that are family friendly. There is so much to see and do. We are a very welcoming province. Definitely make time to visit!

Nova Scotian here, I have traveled all of the provinces and they are all wonderful. I always come home to Nova Scotia. My great grandparents emigrated from Scotland in the mid 1800's and I love the connection to that heritage in Nova Scotia.

Winnipeger here. Its not that its a bad city, its that its bad in comparison to other Canadian cities. Its very memeable but definitely has its problems. Homelessness and Poverty are a major issue, but that's more a government failure than a people failure. IMO. Outisde of the city its very spacely populated, especially as you go up north. Its also really hard to compete on cost of living. I like it. Would probably move again but its a decent city to live in.

Great review! I'm originally from Nunavut and there are a tonne of southerners that come up for work. A good percentage actually end up calling it home. There's a relatively high population of Scottish people too as the Hudson Bay played a huge role in developing the North. You'll find a lot of the prejudices will be quelled rather quickly upon meeting the locals.

I live in Calgary but I miss living in Kuala Lumpur also, Your genuine interest in Canada has literally made me tear up a bit a few times … sometimes over time it’s easy to take for granted the beauty of the country and it helps to appreciate the good things again watching your videos today.

keep it up bro, your one of those ppl that could read the dictionary and make it sound interesting lol, i quite enjoy your take and commentary

I think you should do a specific feature our three territories! They are a huge part of our country, and have so much to see! It’s a common misconception that we only are made up of 10 provinces. Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut are HUGE and so, so special. I lived in NWT and absolutely loved it. Northern lights every night for 7 months, 20 plus hours of sunlight in the summers, a thriving music and art scene and so many job opportunities and culture.

Newfoundland is amazing, nicest people. You being from Glasgow would fit in easily.

I enjoyed your perspective. Thanks for showing curiosity and open-mindedness. I live in Canada and each province is unique. The natural beauty is all around us ready to be discovered. Come and explore Canada, we’ll be glad to see you!

My family is from Newfoundland, and they are definitely the nicest, most genuine people in the world. Other Canadian's will open the door for and stop to see if you need help on the highway, but Newfies will demand you go home with them for dinner 😅. And when you try to leave, for the 3rd time, they will say, "Are you sure you won't have a wee bit more?" 🤣😂❤❤"Let me get ya some for da road". Got to love the Newfies, they are usually where our nice stereotype comes from. Oh and my grandma's says that they started painting their house the same color as their boat so they would be able to find their way home drunk😂.

As a Vancouverite i would say it's hard to find a better place to live. A beautiful city with a mild climate it's hard to be bored here between the ocean and the mountains there is always plenty to see and do.

The humidity is so intense in ontario I know many that come from “hot” parts of the world and they can not take the heat. Lol

As a Canadian, I have lived in The Yukon, BC, Alberta, Southern Ontario (very different from Northern Ontario - way too many people!) and Newfoundland... and for raising a family Newfoundland is phenomenal. But I am not a big city person. I want to live where the skiing, hiking, canoeing, mountain biking, snowmobiling, etc is easily accessible. So the "fringes" those vast areas beyond that 100-mile ribbon, where life is not manicured, is where I want to be living, but honestly that lifestyle can be found in every Province and Territory if you look for it.

Really appreciate your interest in our canadian culture. i love your hockey videos too, you seem to have a good eye for sports, even though you're not familiar with hockey.

I live in Quebec and am quite happy with it, but you need to know at least some french, and although we have nice scenery in some areas, it doesn't compare to the outdoorsy nature of BC

I live in Québec (moved here from B.C.) et oui, j'ai appris le français (yes, I learned French).The video nailed it.

I was born and raised in Manitoba, but left after college. Interesting fact: In Churchill, the polar bear capital, the city ordinance requires you to leave your car unlocked at all times so that if a polar bear threatens anyone, they can simply get in the nearest car and call for help. True.

“If you don’t like the weather here, just wait 15 minutes.”

Hey, am a Newfie, but have actually lived in five different provinces - Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta - hence have seen all wether patterns across Canada. If I were to pick, I would pick NL in an instant. With exception of British Columbia (too ecpensive), you have winter and summer in Canada. So, no matter where you go you wil get winter. However, the temperature ranges in NL go from high 25+/-5 degrees in summer to -10+/-10 in winter (a rare cold day being -20). versus 30+/- 10 in summer and -20+/-20 in winter in the other provinces. The rim of my eyes have frozen in AB and SK and ON and they have to plug in their cars or they will NOT start in winter! FML. So, resign yourself to the fact 'Winter is Coming' and embrace the best of it - skiing, toboganning, snowshoeing, skidooing, ice fishing, winter hiking, snowball fights, king of tbe hill, snow forts and snowmen, winter carnival, cook-outs and OF couse ice/street hockey... if you are going to double up your annual activity options, summer and winter, its definitely best to do it where you get the most snow (26ft per year) an its no too cold in winter! There is nothing like having your house burried by snow and openning the door to a solid wall of snow, no way out, and stocking this snow wall with cans of beer, until the storm ends ! WOOHOO! And seriously, outdoor activities in NL - no dangerous animals like grizzlies, cougars, snakes, venomous spiders, porcupine racoons, skunks. So, the awesome wilderness can thoroughly enjoyed anywhere at anytime in NL.

Originally born in the Netherlands, where I have lived most of my life. Until 8 years ago, when I followed my heart and moved to Northern Manitoba to be with my now husband. It definitely is not for everyone, but I take our cold & long winters + mild summers any day over the hot & humid summers down South + the other crazy weather symptoms like storms/possible tornadoes and such. And as others mentioned before me already: yes, sure, there is crime here and some challenges, but so anywhere else. The nature up here is breathtaking, and life is what you make of it.

Albertan here, just wanted to point out that we don't ONLY have the oil field industry. We have forestry and agriculture, tourism and even a surprisingly abundant hunting/guiding industry.

I live in Richmond, a city south of Vancouver. Our apartment was $290k in 2017. Today, it's around $400k. Property tax and utilities keep going up every year. It was $900 in 2017 and $1300 last year for utilities. While the government has given all home buyers a discount for the property tax, we're still paying around $500 for it. This is for a 35 year old building with a looming renovation cost of around $14k to $50k per unit. Our home insurance is also very expensive. It's $83 per month. Add up all of these things, I have major sympathies for those renting and being evicted by greedy landlords. One of my friends was renovicted from her 450 sq ft apartment. She was paying $800/mo rent. After the landlords renovated the place, they were told they weren't welcomed back. The landlords jacked the price up to $1700/mo. Anyhow, every province has their best bits and no-bits. Every province and territory is beautiful and has their own characteristics that make them uniquely theirs. I cannot imagine myself living in any other country. One last point. The #1 spot to Quebec made me raise an eyebrow. Sounds like a foreigner glanced at some random stats about the province and decided it should be #1. Quebec is treated differently than the rest of the provinces and territories. When I was working as a tech for a manufacturing company in BC, I had about a dozen emails spread over a period of 3 years from Quebec IP addresses, from Quebecois who demanded our English website include French, which I promptly showed them the translator at the bottom of the page. While I am also not religious at all, Quebec is very secular and has a thing against Muslims wearing their religious attire. Also, they are very anti-monarchy. They refuse to swear allegiance to our king. Etc, etc, etc. They're the trouble makers of Canada. ;)

Being born and reared in Newfoundland (now living in BC), you don't go to Newfoundland for the weather. You go for the people, the sights, the music, the parties, and the food. We have a saying in Newfoundland: "There are no strangers, only friends you haven't met yet". We are the friendliest people, and the most fun. If you want the time of your life, and an unforgettable trip, book a trip to Newfoundland. You won't regret it.❤

There is no worst or best. Each province is unique, individual, different and each have their own issues. Each give back in their own way. That’s life. 💃

Friends or mine worked under a three year contract in north west territories & were able to pay for a beautiful home in cash in Alberta when they moved. So it’s how you look at it.

I’ve lived in rural Saskatchewan my whole life and am a farmer. The small farming towns are extremely safe and crime is unknown. Cities like Swift Current and Moose Jaw are quite relaxed and safe too. Saskatoon is good but growing extremely fast. Regina is a boring version of Saskatoon. Prime Albert and North Battleford do have extremely high rates of crime. They also have the highest percentage of First Nations people in Saskatchewan. Yeah, the winters can get cold, but the -30 (or colder) doesn’t usually last long before it returns to -10 which is not bad at all. The summers definitely make up for it. We are a drier climate and out summers range from +25 to +35, and +40 is not unheard of. Saskatchewan has boring scenery only if you just drive along Highway 1 which is where people seen to drive when in Saskatchewan. There are vast grasslands with Sage and cactus, huge pine covered hills, deep river valleys, fields of wheat, huge forests in the north, wildlife everywhere, and probably the best sunrises and sunsets in Canada. The lower density population means virtually no light pollution, and is the perfect place to star gaze.

I'm from Quebec and I was genuinely surprised we were number 1 I honestly think Vancouver (if you can afford it) would be a great fit for you

I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario. I wouldn't change it for anything, I can go to Toronto anytime as it's only under 2 hrs away. Love the scenery around, and historical, not to mention the parks, always something to do no matter the weather. All in all love it here

Growing up between Vancouver and Kelowna(third biggest city in BC) if you take it the cost aspect BC is THE best place to live on the planet. Period. We have some of the most advanced and well maintained infrastructure in the world, our energy supply(outside gasoline prices) is pretty secure, if the world goes tits up you have forests on forests for firewood, basically every major culture from around the world is present, the hot springs, the ski resorts...... Have you ever gone snowboarding in the morning and wakeboarding in the afternoon? Because I have. And you can. April in Kelowna it is cold enough at big white that the resort is still open but warm enough in town to put on a wet suit and hit the lake. From wine to cheese to beer there are so many artisan shops is crazy. If you want to go on a vacation that isn't one of the big three (Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna) my recommendation is Nanaimo. Try to go when the bathtub races are on. You won't be disappointed.

Alberta born and raised. Thanks for the renewed appreciation for my province and country. I offer to host you to discover my little patch of beautiful Canada. Only a days drive to Vancouver too.

Don’t believe what you are hearing in this video. It’s bring rated by an American who has an obvious bias against Canada. I would rate any of our provinces ahead of any of the continental states. Incidentally, Manitoba does not have a problem with humidity. What we do have with all our lakes are excellent beaches and cottage communities.

Newfies are consistently friendly, and I'm not sure about New Brunswick being No Funswick. It's not the most thought about Province but we consider it cute and quaint more than anti-fun

Ooh tier list! Spicy😂

I live in P.E.I. & it is the most friendly PROVINCE in CANADA. The air is fresh & clean. As soon as you cross the confederation. Bridge you can smell that wonderful Ocean Air. NO big buildings lots of beautiful Farm land & BEACHES GALORE. Everyone is always welcome. ❤️❤️

If you ever decide to do something crazy and do a cross Canada road trip, please vlog it because I would watch the heck out of that. 😅

The territories have some high paying jobs, BUT... things cost a heck of a lot more since it has to usually be flown in.

I work in the NWT. No amount of money is enough to make anyone want to live here. I wouldn’t keep coming back if I didn’t love it so much. The quiet of the winter, the dancing northern lights, and the warmth of the people I meet brings me back every time. I ski to work most “days”

I moved from Victoria, British Columbia to Regina, Saskatchewan, partly because I couldn't handle the lack of sunshine in the winter as well as the fact that owning a home would likely remain out of reach, regardless of my salary. Having said that, it's beautiful there in the summer, when the sun usually shines and temperatures can be quite warm.

Definitely visit Vancouver. Long enough to realize its cool but also dirty.

You heard about Halifax, Nova Scotia when you reacted to The Halifax Explosion!

Pleasant surprise to see that Quebec ranks first, because differences in provinces are really hard to notice. I have traveled from Victoria, BC to Halifax, and have always been on the impression that the quality of life is quite the same. People who live in the greater Montreal area can spend their lifetime not knowing any French because most French Quebecers speak English and a growing number of citizens also speak a third language either from their ancestors’ home country or after traveling. It should be mentioned that the cost of university education is low for Quebec residents, compared to the other provinces. Taxes are high but public services such as low cost daycares and senior facilities, as well as a safety net for the vulnerable are valuable commodities.

I live in Manitoba, and it's definitely not for everyone. I absolutely love it, though. In 38 years of living in Winnipeg, I have had one 'criminal' encounter - I was in a bad area of town around 1:00 am (and let's be honest, almost every city has one), and a guy with a knife took a 2L of Coke I just bought from the corner store lol There are so many places within a few hours drive of Winnipeg, it makes a great 'home base'. West of Winnipeg is where it can get a bit bland, but east, towards Ontario and up north, Manitoba is absolutely stunning. Also, New Brunswick isn't that boring. On the surface it is, but the more times I've gone there, the more I appreciate the province. But I agree with what a few others have said - I've been to every province, and they really all have something to offer. A lot of these are interchangeable, depending on what you're looking for, literally any province could rank number one. My personal ranking would be British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Alberta, Newfoundland, Manitoba, Ontario, Québec, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan. But that is by no means the definitive list, and I still enjoy any time I spend in Sask or NB. :)
