Hi friends... im here to ask a few questions on the best option to live. like toronto or calgary .. Now im not a person who parties weekend..so lifestyle doesnt matter to me.... and im not a professioanl looking for a high class job... so im more on the side of unskilled kind of jobs..... i wish to know about the living cost as in food and rental options of both the places. i know that calgary is more colder than toronto. but i hve heard that calgary has more jobs and more pay compared to toronto...... so which place is easy to find a starter kind of job ? please put in your valuable experiences !!

My brother-in-law & his family lives in Calgary & my friend lives in Totonto.
I am landing in TORONTO.


Want to know why? Cheesy

Ref posts of Captain Qorax

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t31291.0.html as per this

My opinion: TORONTO.
-It has a bigger job basket, for any occupation. Thus, the share is bigger -so the opportunities are larger.
-Weather wise, it is not that bad. Perfectly manageable even in winters or summers.
-Cost of living wise, quite Ok too -quite compititive vis-a-vis the other deciding factors.
-The higest minority populace. Ppl are extremely tolerant to race, color, creed, faith etc.
-Land there first, take a 'survival job', which'll be easier here & move to any city after getting the choice job.
-Important: It's not the profession of a newcomer, but the initial survival that'd be the decider for a city.


CALGARY-EDMONTON CORRIDOR:
Very nicely coming-up. Weather is cold, but adjustable [Edmonton needs adaptation though]. Has the 'rockies' to enhance its beauty. A perfect alternative to Vancouver. But:
-Newcomers should take it as a 2nd choice to Toronto. Due to the factors I said under Toronto.
-Damn good for establishing a business. (no provincial tax)
-Essentially a befitting place for Oil & Gas sector, which also makes other jobs available in their HOs.
-But remember again: For newcomer jobs, take Toronto as POE.
