Which place is better to study and immigrate in Canada? Is it Vancouver, Montreal, Toronto, or elsewhere?


Here is the answer

Avoid Vancouver unless you have a lot of money. Yes, it is beautiful there, and the winters are mild, though there is a LOT of rain. The problem with Vancouver is that it's super expensive and there's little work. Since you'll be studying, you'll have a limited amount of time in which to work and earn money and this will affect both your personal and school life, as you'll be too busy trying to earn enough to pay rent to go out much or focus on extra curricular activities. If you're rich though, and can cover all of your living expenses while in school without needing to work, by all means, go for it.

Toronto is just as expensive as Vancouver, but there is a lot of work here, so it's far easier to survive. There are also a lot of budget options for cheap and even free entertainment. Winters are colder than Vancouver, but not by much. Some years we don't even get snow until after Christmas. Summers are hot and humid and uncomfortable though. There are a lot of parks and the islands are beautiful, so it's not like it's a gray concrete jungle, but both Vancouver and Montreal are better looking. The swiftness of life is also quicker here. Everyone is busy all the time. On the upside, we have people from all over the world, and it's easy to discover new cultures, new foods and even learn a different language is you want to.

Montreal is by far the cheapest and most interesting option. Not knowing French isn't as big of a deal if you're only planning to stay there for a short while, but if you want to live there, you will need to learn it. Culture is completely different. The city itself is fairly welcoming though. Public activities and festivals are amazing. The bitter cold of winter will destroy you though, if you're not used to it and Quebecers outside of the city may not be as welcoming, and certainly won't speak English in as large numbers as in the city, so traveling around the province will be tough if you don't speak French.

If you like to spend a day driving through small towns and exploring the countryside, both Ontario and BC are far better for that.
