I am planning to leave Canada in 4 years. I don't feel respected by the country. We are overpaying for health care like you mentioned. A lot of laws and rules are non-sense. Our justice system is corrupt. I really think Quebec and Alberta should separate from Canada. This country has been falling apart since the Liberal party got elected.

1. Quebec\n2. Alberta\n3. Ontario\n.\n.\n.\n.\n10. Manitoba

I’ve travelled to all the lower proveniences and Quebec has by far the worst people.

Welcome to quebec, police will wait untill you make the situation an emergency or get killed in incident.

Alberta gives Quebec welfare checks

Quebec is simply disgusting! It’s Quebec versus the world.

alberta pays equalization payments to quebec, plus we didnt have premier trying to tax the unvaxed..... AB#1

Quebec is beautiful. Love the historic buildings and adore Gaspe. What a view. Alberta though is home now and loving it.

I'd rather live in murdertoba than the coasts'(typhoon's, hurricanes, tsunamis) or BC(drugs), Quebec(Organized Crime), or Ontario(The People), I'd rather pay a decent price for a house and probably get murdered, then deal with the aforementioned.

Quebec definitely isn’t #1

Ignoring economic factors \nHottest and nicest women. 1) Quebec\nKindest people 1) 4 way tie between the Maritime provinces

Racism is allowed in Quebec? No? Only place in Canada you can get away with it.

Quebec?!?!? Nothing but a bunch of damn arrogant French separatists. Alberta should be #1

Quebec: The safest\nAlso Quebec: FLQ crisis

Quebec is the best province to live in because the rest of Canada spoon feeds them.

Let's goo Quebec!!

Tbh Quebec’s damned roads are enough to make me say Canada’s so best province is Ontario

Yes, everybody should move to Quebec.

Talk about a biased editorial, editors obviously from the for ever demanding welfare state of quebec

Too bad the Quebec people are so ridiculously racist

It doesn’t get better. I pay 54% income tax in Quebec plus 15% sales tax on anything I buy. Absolutely ridiculous

For me Quebec is number 10. Highest taxes, language laws, government red tape, ect....

bogus bogus this list is off the charts Quebec number one .Research is sorely lacking Transfer payments from mostly the western provinces keep it going !.Sans economic black mail they would sink on there own. The government spending is akin to Ottawa facts over feelings. No ONE wants to move there.

I've had 2 surgeries in Canada, 1 in Quebec and 1 in Ontario and I've never waited 8 hours. Both took less than two hours from the time I registered my paperwork to going under the knife. I'd like to know where you waited 8 hours.

I am from Ontario and i agree Quebec is my favourite province . I struggle with the french language despite my efforts to learn it but people in Quebec are mostly bilingual and are happy to speak English if you cant speak french

Late seeing your video. Thanks for sharing, ladies. I was in Montreal Canada in the 1970s, when I relocated and married. I loved Quebec, too. I had a blast with my tall handsome husband, now deceased. Laurentian mountains were amazing. I have many memories of my married life in Canada. I have full medical coverage her in the USA. I have been to Central America,1999 where I remarried. No more snow...................... from the houseboat on the lakes of the Ozarks USA m childfree for life, age 70

So true. We are so heavily taxed here in Canada, especially Quebec. The government has so much money in the bank that they kept overdoing those street roads, highway and even bike path again and again. They are wasting our money more than ever. And more than ever, there' s also a lot of homeless people on the street , because they'd use that kind of excuses not to give them their unemployment insurance benefits after loosing their job , but would force them to get welfare assistance instead. where the money is barely enough to pay for their monthly groceries and that`d leave them to make a choice between their rents or to go hungry.

Quebec is a wonderful Province but there are some serious problems : #1 - an anti English undercurrent which sometimes produces some counter productive language laws #2 - a health care system in serious distress ( this is ignored by the politicians ) #3 - the highest taxes in Canada #4 - a lack of low income housing which is getting worse every year which creates an increasing homeless problem #5 - short summers and long cold winters ( not so bad if you dress properly ) #6 - an education system that is firmly stuck in the past. That being said , it's still #1 .

I do think change can be a very good thing. But people need to realize that there’s a different set of problems in each country. It’s all about the pros and cons that you’re willing to deal with. What is the lesser evil to you? Otherwise, no country is really a perfect match for your beliefs and values about how you should be treated. I personally would rather live in Jamaica, but even Jamaica doesn’t have everything in it that I would like. But I need to deal with that and settle. I live in Canada right now. Other than that, I could live in Canada the rest of my life, as long as I get out of Quebec.

wheres quebec??

Hi, I am canadian born and I totally agree with what you are saying. I am from quebec however and here you can chose to see a private physician if you have the $ to pay for it. Also Montréal definitely has more of a party and fun vibe than any other city I have visited. BUT over all I totally agree. I love your insight!

I agree with most of your points, but as a person who immigrated to Canada 23 years ago, I am still happy that i did it, grateful for the opportunities that Canada offered to me, even though i had to work hard for everything. Few points i want to make for those who consider immigrating:\n1. Uprooting yourself from your country, and starting from the bottom in a foreign country is difficult, and not for everyone. Sometimes, when immigrants go back to visit their home countries, they try to present themselves as successful, and tend to exaggerate the positives. Having realistic expectations is crucial, do a thorough research beforehand, prepare yourself, and you will have better chances to succeed.\n2. I also lived in US for almost 2 years: US is better if you want to do business, or if you are highly specialized (IT, healthcare, etc.), but i wouldn't raise children there, even more so if i were a visible minority. \n3. If you are on top of your career at home, think twice before immigrating, unless you find a suitable position before arrival. If you are in a priviledged position, you have connections, doors are opened easily for you, you might find it difficult to adjust without these things. Many people leave their country because of corruption, they will find that they have more opportunities in Canada. \n4. There are some significant differences between provinces in Canada: Quebec offers low university tuition, Alberta offers the best ratio between average income and average housing costs. (You can buy a new house in Edmonton with about 300k) \n5. Canada might not be for those who want to become milionaires in few years, or for those who want a night life like Las Vegas or Ibiza... but if you are a young couple, motivated and hardworking, who want to raise children in a decent environment, to be able to send them to school without fear, Canada might be a good place.

A yes quebec. The same province that wants all the subsidy payments from the rest of the provinces. No wonder they're No.1. I can't wait for them to separate so we don't have to pay for their french stupidity.

As a Quebecer, thank you for putting our Belle Province in first. When I clicked play, I was afraid we'd get bashed immediately and ranked tenth. I agree with most of your points, especially relating to the food, history and culture, and the natural beauty of our rural regions (Abitibi-Témiscamingue, my father's home region comes to my mind). \n\nThe only thing is, enough people are having problems with housing in Montreal, and home prices on the island have become unaffordable. This is a factor that contributes to urban sprawl, as a lot of young couples will decide to move to the North or South shores and buy a nice home for a lower price. Also, we haven't invested nearly enough money in public transit over the past few decades, leaving a lot of cities and areas undeserved. At least the REM might help fix some of that!\n\n\nBut thank you for making this video! I also have a lot of respect for the other Canadian provinces and have appreciated what I've seen in Ontario, BC and Alberta. I plan on visiting the rest of the country in following years, if I have enough money and time to do so. Thank you, and subbed!

true joke! quebec's first! i stay there, we have the worst roads, i think bagdad is better , worst hospitals et medical services, worst services at all, quebec is one of the poorest province, thanks to the high level of taxes. the liscence plate say in french : Je me souviens! ( i remember). that should say : i remember that you still have some money with you and i want it.

I agree with Alberta and Quebec being at the top. Atlantic Canada is underrated. I live in BC it's definitely not 4th, yes beautiful geographically, but everything man-made not so much. Tons of homeless, poverty, segregation and the locals (esp. Vancouverites) are actually quite snobby and unfriendly. Even small cities here face problems with homeless and drug addicts.

I'm from the Quebec, and I'm surprised that english speaking canadian say its the best province lol\nBut it is :D\nEven if the others are nice too

Quebec...NOTNOTNOT Worst place ever. People frown upon English speaking people. Roads are garbage. Police are weird and it is in the way of the east coast. yuk

You are absolutely right. I live in quebec for 37 years I work as a RN but retired now .The taxes are ridiculously high QC is terrible. Canada has a two tier system. Private and free.you guys are so true. My husband was born canadian and we did ok with two salaries teacher and RN.

never change, beloved quebec. never change…

If Quebec wasn't so hostile towards Non-French speakers it would be my number 1 choice but all the anti-English laws, lack of availability for non-French speakers, and general rude anti-outsider behavior really puts a hamper on its growth. I'm more than willing to learn French but if it means dealing with daily abuse from the locals then its a pass.

Quebec can’t self sustain their economy without payments from Alberta, yet they make your #1?

Funny how you mention the weather for most of the provinces, but don't mention it at all for the number one province of Quebec? As a born and raised Montrealer, I think it has some of the worst weather in the country! Super hot and humid in the summer and lot's of mosquitoes, and then two months of temperatures below -10 C.

Trust me Quebec is number 11 because it is bad

Poutine = pooTEEN (or pooTIN if in Quebec). Newfoundland = noof n land. NOOF n land or noof n LAND - either one if born after 1970. Otherwise grand accent and pronunciations, lads!

I guess you can not speak English in Quebec. You are not welcome to speak English in Quebec.

The only beautiful city in Canada I have ever seen is Quebec City

.These two clowns should be sent out of the country for defaming it.\nGo and live somewhere else and you would find the same. I have\nlived in England, South Korea, Canada and I always enjoyed where I was.\nThey speak of Canada, but they do not seem to really know Canada.\nI would like to think they are living in Ontario. or Quebec. There is a \nlot more to CANADA. More people coming than going.

The Quebec language laws are encouraging this type of behavior, especially with the 'Pure Laines'...

I love cold weather myself. Work outside in construction. Father's side is French Canadian from Quebec. I'd move back to Canada if it weren't for the insane taxes and becoming more communist thanks to Trudick. But hockey ? ? culture for me, growing up, and even now, is more important than religion. Same with winter sports, adventure and the outdoors. Canada...love the land, sports, climate...but it's the government there that makes it miserable now.
