What is the difference between Toronto and Vancouver in the eyes of an old immigrant?

Vancouver and Toronto are the two largest Canadian cities and the places with the largest population in China. Is it better to live in Vancouver or Toronto? I think Toronto is better than Vancouver for the following reasons:

1. A house is the biggest investment of most families. The housing prices in Toronto are much cheaper than those in Vancouver, and most of them are brick-concrete structures, which are better than those in Vancouver. In other words, spending the same money in Toronto is more spacious and comfortable than living in Vancouver.

2. Work For new immigrants, work is the first need. Ontario is the locomotive of Canadian economy, and Toronto is the most developed area in Ontario, especially Mississauga, where there are many factories and companies. Even if you can't find a professional job temporarily, it's not difficult to find a labor force to support your family, and you can buy a house and a car after working for two years, which is very difficult to do in Vancouver.

Education Many China people give up their comfortable life in China and come to Canada, the important reason is for the education of their children. Four of China's top five universities are located near Toronto, and many good universities are also here.

According to the survey, Vancouver, a daily consumer product closely related to life, is about 10% more expensive than Toronto. For new immigrants who can't find a job for a while, this is undoubtedly an important indicator that affects the quality of life.

5. Cars Canada lives on wheels. The oil price in Vancouver is more than 10 cents higher than that in Toronto, which means more to drivers every day.

6. Social Welfare Social welfare covers a wide range. Here's a few points: (1) You can take free English classes for new immigrants at any time in Toronto, and it's free up to level 5, but you have to wait in line for a long time in Vancouver, and you have to pay if you exceed level 3. (2) Applying for unemployment insurance will generally get EI quickly. (3) As long as the basic conditions are met, you can apply for welfare housing provided by the government.

Perhaps this is why half of the 200,000 new immigrants settle in most areas every year!

Vancouver is certainly better than Toronto, which is closer to China, but in June, Air Canada flew directly to Toronto, which took three hours. Vancouver is also a good place to relax if you have a lot of money in your pocket. You can catch big crabs at the seaside, but you can only buy them in supermarkets in Toronto.
