  1. I wouldnt say it's cheaper in Vancouver.  I've lived both places... food & gas is 15-20% more costly here in Van, house prices are much higher than To for sure but rents I think are similar.   Here in BC you need to pay medical premiums unless you make under $25K/year.. for a single person thats an extra $65/month.  I think Ontario OHIP is not charged for?

    Electric/gas bill a little less costly in winter out here as not as cold.  


  2. Vancouver is the MOST expensive city in Canada to live in, according to Stats   Canada, who produce monthly cost  of living reports.

    You won't spend much on snow shovels, but having to buy a new raincoat every 3 months, does add up . (grin )

    Jim B.. Toronto.

  3. supply and demand...more people wanting to live in Toronto means cost of living is higher!
