Alberta is the best

LMAO how is alberta number 2? It sucks here!

Alberta is number 1 it gives big chunk of money under the name of equalization and Quebec takes money from Alberta

I am planning to move out from Winnipeg to Toronto next week or so, my family moved out to BC, Alberta and Ontario.

I’ve lived in northern Alberta my entire life, and I think it’s my favourite province, I’ve been to other provinces, but I just love the 7 month -40 degree winters?

Alberta is so much wealthier than Quebec, I don't know how someone can possibly rank Quebec higher. I used to live in Quebec (Quebec City) and it's an absolute dump. Almost like living in a third world country.

Quebec has the highest taxes of all Canada. I prefere Alberta.

Alberta at #3, are you kidding. Oil sector is no more

Damn Alberta got WAY higher than I would've expected living there

cool video, had fun, alberta and Quebec rule, I want to live in Alberta

lol Quebec oh give it a break. Nobody moves to Quebec willingly only people who move to Quebec are new Canadian refugees they leave soon after. It 's a high tax high corruption province. Ask any Canadian\n Quebec would rank near the bottom . If you are going to live in Canuckistan , Alberta specifically the Calgary area is the best place to live with the brightest future.

We just drove across Canada in July, and agree with your assessment of Quebec, and most of the other provinces. Manitoba and Ontario were in a shockingly run down state, and Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Quebec were our top three. BC is beautiful, but you cannot ignore all the corruption and the hyper-inflated RE market making a mess of everything. We're from BC, and love the place, but it is too difficult to survive there. PEI is in our top three worst provinces, as it's reputation is completely unfounded.

Alberta ?

All of those home costs sound ridiculously high for a country with virtually limitless land and natural resources. And what about cultural issues? I'd probably like Alberta because it leans conservative, being Jordan Peterson's homeland and everything, but somebody else might like another province for weed and whores, or gay stuff, for example.

I’m from Ontario, but I’ve been working outside of the country for over 4 years now. If I ever move to a different province, my top choices would be Alberta and British Columbia. Other possibilities would be Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, and Quebec.

Quebec the best??? Are you nuts? It's the most corrupt and utterly useless province in Canada! Take away the federal handouts and it would starve to death! Yet many want to separate from the rest of Canada! Saskatchewan is definitely above Quebec. Alberta is number 1

ive been here 15 years and i hate it its cold people are rude and selfish no one talks to anyone healthcare here in quebec is terrible i can never see a doctor i have lived in bc and alberta and everything is just overpriced and wages are low so all u do is work and you have no life i am researching where i can move i never want to expierience another winter here again

Haven’t watched this video yet, but I swear if Alberta isn’t bottom 3 I’m losing it. I’m from that hell hole so I have the right to shit talk it

Hi there....please help me to find an accounting technician job in alberta....any recruitment agencies??

Alberta was the best for me. Thanks for the video.

Its Alberta....what else would you expect

The best provenance is Alberta

What is Quebec doing at number 1? You know they tried to seperate right? Alberta deserves that number 1 spot.

Hi Anna, do you know any agencies that specialize in chemical engineering or oil and gas? I'm moving to Calgary as a permanent resident and it'll be great to have a job lined up beforehand. I have a masters degree in chemical engineering from an American university but I've found it difficult to get any interviews and most postings mention PEng as a requirement or expect me to be registered in Alberta. Any help is highly appreciated ?

BC boy here. Born in Alberta but was raised on the coast!

Why did they skip Manitoba and Alberta? hahaha

Let’s stop giving Quebec all Alberta oil money and Ontario resources and just give them Justin Trudeau and all the liberal people who ruin the the rest of the country.

My wife moved here 25 years ago luckily she is a European trained musician, all her credentials were recognized and she is still teaching music here in Alberta. \nAt first she was very homesick understandably but.luckily we were able to move her aging parents here 16 years ago. They got treated like royalty by the Canadian Government compared to my Canadian born parents showered with benefits even though they never worked in Canada one day. I know this is no.longer the case for new.immigrants but on the whole Canada has one of the most generous immigration policies on the planet.\nI feel for new.immigrants it's a very rough transition to make but after 200 plus years in Canada I thank my ancestors for taking a huge risk in coming here every day.

As an Albertan, i completely agree with Alberta, everything you said is to a T

I’m Aussie but i had a humanities teacher from Alberta and he always brought up how good it was. Would love to visit Canada one day

A little sad to see Manitoba last, but thank you for mentioning Churchill as the only thing Manitoba is best at! Polar Bears. I’m proud to say it’s my home town. \n\nAlso I highly dispute Quebec being the best province. They get soooooo much of Alberta’s money in equalization payments from federal government. \nThe excuse you had for Alberta’s economy being tied to oil is the same for the entire country.

thank you for loving my province, alberta

I'm from Quebec and moved to Alberta and I agree it could be a great province to live in, except if your job is in Montreal and you want to commute. The traffic of Montreal is horrible, even worse than Toronto's. The healthcare and education systems of Quebec are also inferior to Alberta, BC and Ontario because of the very heavy bureaucracy. Oh and heavy bureaucracy = Higher taxes than elsewhere in the country. But Quebec has a good quality of life in general because of its low cost of living in general and its strict controls on rent, car insurance and electricity prices, which prevent these from going up by too much. People tend to benefit from more government protections towards abusive businesses in Quebec than elsewhere in the country. Quebec also has cheaper beer, but wine and spirits are cheaper in Alberta. That province also doesn't have a lawsuit culture because of its no-fault rules in many aspects (For ex: You cannot be sued for causing a car accident or failing to clear snow from your driveway.) Alberta is more boring (At least, Edmonton. Calgary looks very cool.), but has better public services and better economic potential than Quebec. It's better in my opinion to raise a family in Alberta. And many people think you can move to Quebec without knowing French. That's false, except if you really wanna hate your time in Quebec. In terms of the climate, Quebec has a milder climate than Alberta but has more snow and their summers are very damp, while Alberta has more comfortable and dry summers. Owning an A/C is imperative in Quebec.

Alberta got robbed

I like Alberta, but not enamoured with it. Luckily it has an industry that gets the biggest technical subsidy to any industry ever. Now we see the younger generations are paying a big price for this and will continue to do so for decades to come because of a province that basically just wanted to ride the wave instead having any foresight not to mention it's lax approach to industry regulation.

Alberta number 1

This attitude is a lot more common in Canada than people around the world realize. \nA lot of white Canadians would say it’s not racist at all, while people of color in Canada are not surprised by this because white people acting like that is not rare here . Also, if your a POC don’t even bother going to Alberta or Saskatchewan. It’s basically the Canadian equivalent to the U.S south ??

Mmmmm Alberta should be first,I bet he lives in Quebec

I live in Calgary Alberta Canada

Lived in Alberta for 2 years had to leave because of visa was up …. miss Canada everyday :(

Living in Alberta, economically it's all gold standard but the biggest downside of alberta is that when you're young there isn't really much to do honestly. Especially in edmonton, it's good for family but nightlife is not even close to that of vancouver or Montreal

This is my list \n10. Manitoba \n9. Newfoundland and Labrador \n8.Saskatchewan \n7. New Brunswick \n6. Pei \n5. Alberta \n4. Ontario \n3. Quebec \n2. Nova Scotia \n1. Bc

I would put Alberta on top because not very many of us speak French and we pay very little tax

I agree with this. Lived in Montréal for 10 years, Quebec has it all. But, moved to New Brunswick for cheaper housing market, visited British Colombia, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia it's all beautiful too, but always love going back to Ontario, so many things to see and do esp if you're a sports fanatic it has (NBA/NHL/MLB etc. Also, I love Alberta for it's majestic scenery esp Banff but I don't like it's politics.

I guess it depends on where you live in Canada. Here in Alberta in a small community I have been successful. Everybody wants to live in City. THAT'S WRONG!!!!

Sorry guys. But it's:\n1) poo-teen (french)\n2) new-fun-land\nFunny about crude oil. Those alberta guys with their oil, eh? Unfortunately, there's a lot of first nation people sniffing petrol to get high there I'm canada. And why not do a show somewhere out in like Petawawa?\nFunny skit.

Fun fact : British Columbia, Ontario, and Alberta are the top performers among all the provinces, earning “B” grades on the Education and Skills report card.

Natural gas is big in Alberta

hey im from BC and it's a fair choice to put bc at fourth, but alberta is kinda too cold but at the same time in ways is better than BC I completely agree with Ontario being up there on second cuz its really great. i've never been to quebec and I'm not that interested but maybe I will visit it now to see the difference.

You forgot the mention the Transfer payments from Alberta and Saskatchewan that are in the millions of dollars going to Quebec. Yet they don''t let a pipeline to cross there Province to go to Erwin Oil refineries.
