Hi !

I would like to know what makes Toronto more preferable than provincial cities like Alberta/Manitoba/Saskatchewan/British Columbia besides size of city and employment opportunities?

I am considering to apply under provincial - any suggestion from anyone who has experience in these cities ?

Thanks !!

Alberta/Manitoba/Saskatchewan/British Columbia are provinces of Canada. Toronto is the largest city in Canada.

Sorry for confusion ...

I mean generally why would one prefer Ontario over other provinces besides job opportunity factor.

having lived in calgary, and visited toronto, i cant understand why anybody would choose toronto...

i guess it depends on what you are looking for in a city, and what you enjoy doing.

i enjoy skiing, i like places that are relaxed, and i like living in a place where work/life balance still exists (although i suppose this is changing these days)
