  • Canada: if you like crazy cold winters lasting 6 months, way less money - check the exchange rate and divide 110,000 by 1.3 to get the US equivalent, overpriced housing market, mediocre public school system, long hospital waits, and overcrowded cities. Don’t make a mistake- if you have a choice US is thousands times better.

      I somehow feel that folks in Canada responding here are giving negative reviews of Canada because they don't want too many people moving there 😁

    Peace of mind and minimal likelihood of you getting killed by a gun. Choose Canada.

    Living expenses are lower in Canada unless it is Vancouver... in Bay Area for most people more than 30% salary is spent in rent and most just dream of buying homes ...

  • Have you even googled Ontario?

    Here’s how the 3 months of Winter will be -

    “Winter - December 21 to March 19
    In winter, it is cold and, depending which area you live in, it may snow often. The temperature in most of the province is often below 0°C, day and night. Temperatures can drop below -30°C, which can be dangerous”

    Below 0 day and night for 3 months.

    Now check your Mountain View weather for the next week.
