Ontario vs Alberta: is it time to move west?

In 2022, Ontario saw at least 49,000 people leave the province with many relocating to Alberta. With a cheaper rental market, more affordable homes, lower taxes and decent gas prices, Alberta’s campaign to get more Torontonians to relocate seems to be working. Let us know, what would it take to make Toronto liveable again?

[@dbaker0226]

No one should be paying more than 30% of their monthly wages in rent. If this was the case it would also ease the strikes for more pay. People need to live not work 24/7 to still be behind.

I moved from Toronto to Calgary and lived there for 6 years before returning back to Toronto. I seriously regret it. I had a good paying job and rented a beautiful fully furnished condo in the downtown core with washer/dryer, smart home connected Google, and fireplace. I paid $1500 monthly with parking and utilities included. I was earning 6k a month and I was able to save 3k out of it. The weather is decent in Calgary, but social life sucks! As a person of colour, I would say, classism is a bigger issue than racism. Calgarians are more reserved and conservative. Most live an active lifestyle by eating healthy and exercise frequently, it's the norm there. I felt home sick and missed out on dating life. Since the collapse of oil an gas, there has been a shortage of single men. Women of all races are struggling with this issue. Lucky for me, I found my now husband in Toronto and I convinced him to move with me back to Calgary. I am truly looking forward to transitioning next year. Best of luck to you all.

What's upsetting about Toronto and Ontario, in general, is that the economy improved during lockdown because a lot of people (noted that not everyone got it, and some had trouble getting it as self-employed individuals, which is a whole other can of worms!) had money coming in with CERB. A lot of people like myself who are older got laid off and were forced to work in the gig economy. I had a cushion for basics like food and shelter. If there was a universal basic income put into place, rent control reinstated, and the focus was not put just on home ownership, I think people would consider staying.

As a fellow Torontonian who left in 2015, nothing will make the city "affordable." Prices skyrocketed in the early aughts, even during the 2008 recession prices were climbing. There's never going to be a bubble that bursts in the housing market. Toronto has too much bureaucratic rot, high expenses, high taxes and has been mismanaged for decades. This rot has been creeping to neighboring GTA cities, which only continues to raise the cost of living. Ontario is a giant red flag. Get out while you can. Head to Saskatchewan or Alberta. Quebec is great if you're bilingual. And Winnipeg is a goldmine if you can stomach their winters.

Some times you need to accept the fact especially on a governmental level, that life is an individuals game and there will always be people who make bad decisions no matter what, the best you can do for them is provide em a bed and let the local community through its churches and other local charities help them.

It enables them to constantly live on the edge, and that will one day sooner push them to their physical limits, and potential life long drug induced injuries, from which point there become even less hope for their lives.

Or just don't have one, and if that's the case then, getting clean for life is a really important step, and quite frankly in your bid to save a few, liberals usually end up dooming the many, but never themselves until it's to late, and you end up with huge crime waves and problems like California...
