Communities across Canada
Communities across Canada
Most newcomers to Canada tend to settle in the three biggest cities Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. But many newcomers and many Canadians choose to live in the medium-sized cities, which they feel have as much to offer as the larger cities with a better quality of life.
Among the medium-sized cities are Halifax, Québec City, Ottawa, London, Windsor, Sudbury, Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Regina, Calgary, Edmonton and Victoria.
All of the medium-sized cities have diverse, multi-ethnic populations ranging in size from approximately 100,000 to one million people, and all have the variety of public and private institutions and services found in the largest cities.
Some newcomers like the idea of living in smaller cities or towns like Moncton, Fredericton, Red Deer and Kelowna, or prefer to live in a rural area. Depending on your skills or professional qualifications, some regions may have better job opportunities than others.
Visit the websites of each province and territory to see what each has to offer. To find these websites, visit canada.gc.ca/othergov/prov_e.html.
Each website has a list of government departments and agencies. In the bigger provinces, some government departments may have their own Web sites, with more detailed information. You may also find a directory of online services, a link to educational institutions, and a link to major cities and towns. Most of the websites also have a tourism section, where you can discover the special attractions of each province and territory.
The website www.workdestinations.org has links to information on the labour market and the housing market of communities across Canada. It also has useful tips and information about moving within Canada.
You can also visit a website called Canadian Government Information on the Internet at cgii.gc.ca/muni-e.html. It is another useful link to federal, provincial and municipal government information.
