If you come to Alberta, PLEASE DON’T VOTE LEFT ???

To heck with your metrics. Quebec has the highest taxes, and still gets subsidized by the ROC (mostly Alberta and Sask). It's ultra-right nationalist language laws are oppressive, services available to those who speak English are almost non-existent, and unless you're 'pur laine,' they despise you. So, yeah. Life's great there.

I have lived in B.C, Alberta and Saskatchewan, but I much prefer B.C.

Alberta #2.... LOL! Kidding right? \nThat would equate to Wyoming being the 2nd best place to live in the U.S. while having seasonal climate like Alaska without the mountains.\nAlberta's all good if you love 2 months of 'summer' known as 'Rodeo Season' followed by 10 months of sub arctic WINTER known as 'Hockey Season', wear only plaid shirts and jean jackets, accessorize your all denim wardrobe with a leather belt sporting a chrome buckle the size of a hubcap, your choice of footwear consists of hard and uncomfortable high heel boots with ridiculous pointed toes, wouldn't dare leave your home unless fully costumed like a casting extra in a B movie Spaghetti Western complete with a hat the size of bucket, while having dietary needs that are easily satisfied from both of the 2 known food groups of Beef or Wheat, and your 2 favourite 'cultural interests' are 'Country' & 'Western'. (Good luck trying to find a radio station that plays anything but)\n\nThe views are spectacular if you're keen on flat vast expanses of endless nothingness uninterupted by anything of interest other than petroleum industry related facilities, if that's your thing.\n\nBonus..... with the second largest indoor mall in North America... complete with waves and a beach so you never have to leave the province to go on vacation. Your kids can feign battle on a full size mock pirate ship or midget submarine, while Mom sip's pina colodas under a plastic palm tree beachside and watching shirtless cowboys wade ankle deep in the 'surf' while still wearing their 'Wrangler' branded jeans. Family content, Dad can strut down the mall concourse to find 'Whiskey Row' and select his favourite 'Saloon' to wile away the hours guzzlin' suds and swillin' whiskey to his hearts content, or until Mom's run off to get cowpoked and the kids are floatin' face down in an olympic sized wave pool with an artificial tropical south seas backdrop.\n\nNo worries about the future when Alberta's only industry of petroleum implodes. Alberta's plan B is to regain it's lost position of wheat exports now that the world has lost it's appetite for Russian toast. Your kids can look forward to lifetime employment of waiting for harvest while hanging out on a split rail fence sucking a wheat straw perpetualy held between their teeth until it's time to fire up the old John Deere tractor and drive straight lines for 40 days and 40 nights.\nSounds like Alberta's just short of heaven in the #2 ranked postion of best Provinces to live in Canada.

Oil only accounts for 15% of our GDP in Alberta, there is far more to us than just oil, hi-tech, pharma, Rare-earths and much more

Quebec is ok but don't drive on there horrible roads. You would think with all the money alberta sends them they could fix them.

I would never live in Quebec as it has the highest provincial income tax rate. The starting rate on the first 45K of income is 15%, that's triple Ontario and BC. Ontario is number one for me. If you live in smaller city, the cost of housing is bearable. It's starting provincial tax rate is just over 5%, much like BC. Alberta is only tax friendly if you are earning at least $100 grand but for lower incomes, their starting tax rate is double that of Ontario and BC at 10%. I have seen a few cost comparison websites by province and NONE that I have seen mentions provincial income tax differences, a major omission.

I moved to Manitoba from Alberta to be close to my son. Nice place but they wouldn't know a mountain if it landed on their head

If you're thinking of moving to Alberta wait for Kenny to get out as the wages are still on the line of dropping because of him and he keeps cutting funding for hospital workers and education

Alberta rocks Quebec and Ontario suck

LMFAO Alberta is a SH

I like your content, and the explanation of each! Although I'm biased myself that even three decades ago? My personal choice for No 1 Province, would have, had to be Alberta, the Wild Rose ?? & the Canadian, Provincial, Gem that even Queen Victoria, Her self Favored over all the Others. Thank You for my Opportunity too comment.

Construction hasn't kept up??? Has he not been to Alberta?

10:18 is Banff. Banff is Alberta

1. BC\n2. Alberta\n3. Ontario\n4. Quebec\n5. Rest of Canada

I have watched lots of videos. But your's awesome and more informative ❤️\nCan you please advise me, is it possible to move to any provinces of canada like Ontario, Alberta etc:- once i got PR through AIP.\nIs it mandatory to stay in the province from where i got PR ?\nCome to canada with temporary work permit or with PR. What you will recommend ?\nI have started my process through AIP.\nYour quick response will be highly appreciated.

I think my favourite province has to be Alberta and second place is Ontario and third place is nova Scotia

Housing market and prices are out of control here\nIn Edmonton - Calgary Alberta ! \nAnd the realtors are LOVING it !!

Nova Scotia. My birthplace and my favorite province. Someday I hope to move back there. (I live in Alberta right now... But have lived in Nova Scotia, Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta throughout my life)

Alberta is the best we have the crown jewel of Canada Banff and Jasper and the drive in between. The only negative I could think of is all of the broke back mountain cowboy wannabes in Calgary they will never be the capital city aka the city of champions I don't even think they have a waterpark in their malls or a roller coaster how sad is that? But besides that dump of a city Alberta is definitely #1

Did you really put Quebec first?? I'm shocked. I lived here my entire life and being taxed 15% on everything and high income tax makes living here NOT affordable. A lot of racism and stereotyping as well, despite the fact that you are a French speaker. Montreal is full of pothole and corruption smells from miles ahead. ALBERTA should be first and Quebec 5th.

13. Iqaluit (not sure if I'm spelling this right. cold and expensive, whale blubber anyone?)\n12. Northwest Territories (just waaay too cold, wasteland)\n11. Yukon (too cold, least it's near alaska? )\n10. Saskatchewan (farmer/hick central)\n9. Manitoba (murder capital, too cold, not near anything...)\n8. New Brunswick (nothing there...some nice areas)\n7. Newfoundland (Waaaay out there, but friendly, talk funny, club a baby seal anyone?)\n6. Ontario (too expensive, America Jr., Toronto not that safe anymore, too many chinese..fake people)\n5. Alberta (beautiful, but too many cowboys/crackers, tar sands also terrible)\n4. Quebec (great culture and food, can be unfriendly towards outsiders)\n3. BC (forest fires, drugs everywhere, but very beautiful, too many chinese)\n2. Nova Scotia (beautiful, cool culture, not too expensive)\n1. Prince Edward Island (beautiful, scenic, picturesque, affordable, friendly)\n\n- from a Canadian expat in China

Lived in Alberta for 3 years. I think something must have happened\n Pretty sure it wouldn't rank anywhere nears as high now. Nor would the school ranking.

Hi Jason, I have an express entry profile with CRS 379 and I have masters in electrical engineering with 3 years of experience. I have shown my interest in Alberta in Feb 2022 but haven't got any response. Kindly suggest to me which program is good for me.

I live in Alberta and I have lived in Quebec, Ontario, Saskatchewan, PEI and BC. I liked them all but PEI and BC were the best

I currently live in Quebec city area and have been for six years, HOWEVER, I have lived in NB and Ontario for a while and as far as Quebec being one of the best province in your video, I respectfully disagree! I hate this province so much and rather live in NB, Ontario, Alberta, BC or NS before living here. This province has horrible health care, they are also the most TAXED ppl in the country by far!! They also do not allow you to put your children in the school you want, they dictate that they must go to a french school unless you did most of your education in english, in another province yourself as a parent. Lastly, it probably ranked first because the ppl here think it's the greatest province in the world and have never left it, therefore nothing to compare it to....kind of like an american who will yell out USA is the best country in the world without even travelling outside his country to compare it to lol

Outside the big cities sure Quebec might have lower rentals but in the big cities they are almost at par with Alberta. An average 2 bedroom apartment today is 1500 or more per month. So you would need an average 100k annual salary in order to live a comfortable existence.

When Quebec, Alberta and Ontario grace the top 3 places... you know there is an issue. Yes, I've lived in all of them. And many others.

Quebec has gotten there by receiving equalization payments from Alberta. They have been coddled by the federal government for decades and think they deserve special treatment. They whine and threaten to separate if they don't get what they want. I wouldn't move there for the world.

This will make it easy for someone who just want know quickly \n\n1. Quebec \n2. Alberta \n3. Ontario\n4. British Columbia\n5. Nov Scotia\n6. Saskathewan\n7. New Brunswick\n8. Prince Edward Island\n9. New Foundland & Labrador\n10. Manitabo

I am Alberta human and I love cheese on my stomach

I am from Alberta, I live just outside the capital city of Edmonton. Edmonton has the highest crime rate in Alberta but it is still a very great place to live.

I am from N B and a Fishermen I fish snow crabs ? I also fish lobsters ? ? and I can also hunt I live in a small community I can also live of grid.i live a good life there is not much good paying job but I am a sef employer that keep 2 Deckhands at time.I love .Been around the World with boxing also worked in the oil industry in Alberta when I was younger

Amazing that you rated the largest WELFARE province in Canada, wholly supported by Alberta...as your #1 choice. When someone else is paying all your bills, you can live the life of Reilly

From Alberta, my top 3: 1)BC 2)PQ 3)AB

ALBERTA! TEXAS OF THE NORTH!

Alberta is by far the best hardest workers and the only reason this country is first world. Without Alberta you have no country.

The economy of alberta crashed starting 6 years ,right after Trudeau became our dictator

I haven’t travelled much of Canada but I refuse to believe bc doesn’t crack the top 3. It’s beautiful. It has it all. Cities. Mountains. Oceans. Forests. Deserts. It’s expensive AF but so is Ontario. Everyone I’ve ever met from Ontario cannot stop gushing about how beautiful bc is it that there are ACTUAL mountains here. And the weather in both Ontario and Alberta is awful in comparison.

10) Manitoba\n9) Newfoundland & Labrador\n8) P.E.I\n7) New Brunswick\n6) Saskatchewan \n5) Nova Scotia\n4) British Columbia \n3) Ontario\n2) Alberta\n1) Quebec

I think every Canadian would expect the top 5 to be some combination of Québec, Nova Scotia, Alberta, BC, and Ontario but I’m kinda surprised by the order lol. I’ve lived in Ontario, Manitoba, and Alberta but have travelled to every province except Newfoundland and Labrador. Only 22 so that probably has some effect but I kinda expected \n1. Ontario \n2. Alberta \n3. British Columbia \n4. Québec \n5. Nova Scotia \nCost of living definitely screws BC and Ontario over though. Pretty solid list, the 5 are pretty much interchangeable depending on what you’re after.

Alberta is the best. If it wasnt for our transfer payments Quebec is a welfare state.

Lol. Imagine a list that has Alberta ahead of BC. And I’m from Nova Scotia living in Ontario. Lol, where ya from bud?

No way Quebec is number 1 even Canadians don’t wanna live there haha and even though they are one of the 3 richest provinces with Alberta and Ontario they take massive equalization payments from Alberta that should be going to help the Maritime provinces and not to help the rich

1. BC\n2. Quebec\n3. Newfoundland and Labrador\n4. Nova Scotia\n5. New Brunswick\n6. PEI\n7. Ontario\n8. Maitoba\n9. Alberta\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10. Saskatchewan

I live in the lower mainland, BC is the most Beautiful place on the planet IMO. However, trying to make an honest living here has become virtually impossible. BCs culture and society has really degraded due to demographic issues, and im looking to escape to alberta.

Alberta does not have the best public school in Canada

Dude, Alberta has the best school? Seriously?

Alright... Quebec first is like super controversial, has to be Ontario. Good point about the Alberta economy though, I would put them 3 or 4 due to this

Alberta’s my fav tbh
