Bill: Aye me lad, my ancestors made that move roughly 150 years ago. Alexander MacKay, my great grand father and 4 of his brothers landed in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Alex and one brother stayed in Nova Scotia, one came to Ontario, one went to Manitoba and the 5 th guy went to Oregon USA. The guys that stayed in Nova Scotia and the guy in Manitoba have been the most prolific, just hundreds of descendants. There are no known descendants of the brothers who went to Ontario or Oregon.
Real estate prices will be the most favourable in the Maritimes, folks will be quite friendly, we think polution is min., however the air flow across North America is west to east, goods trucked in are costly and the winters are something not found very desirable by most Europeans. In fact, I was born there, and will not move back because of those winters.
I have to agree with most of the rest on Quebec. Don't get me wrong, over the years I've met some very fine people in Quebec. However they have a bunch of intelectuals running their government. I guess that is true of most governments but these birds go one step further.
Ontario real estate is out to lunch, these guys have to be the king of finance. Only place I know of where folks can handle a 1/2 million dollar mortgage, lease two cars, and $35,000 credit card debt, making less than $100,000. per year. Most and even the Scots and Dutch must have lost their heritage, not only do they try to keep up with affluent neighbors, but boast of paying more for that big ticket item. Ah but me laddie, their winters are gentle, at least down here in the deep south west. Glen forgot one minor item, Scots across Canada are right into sliding chamber pots down the ice, bumping them into one another.
If you go west, real estate will level out again, winters will be quite severe. Polution used to be quite low, however I expect that has gone down the drain. On the west coast winters will be quite gentle.
