Choose the right city
Canada is a large country with many places to live, each with its own:
culture
services
weather
Even if you have friends and family living in Canada, think about what you want your new life to be like, such as:
Do you want to live in a large city?
Would you be happier in a small town?
What kind of schooling do you and your family want?
Canadian communities are diverse
If you have specific work skills, you’ll want to live in a place where you can best use them. Take time to consider other options, such as:
climate
libraries
facilities
cost of living
health services
cultural activities
languages spoken
community centres
