I definitely require high speed internet access. Other than that, I could use some help! EDIT: Mountains are not a deal breaker. Water would be nice, but sea level rise is a concern.
EDIT: Oh, Come ONNNN!!!!
British Columbia.
Kelowna, Kamloops, Abbotsford maybe.
Vancouver Island is great but not many mountains. If you have the money, the North Shore in Vancouver is awesome.
You could live in the Northwest of British Columbia around Haida Gwaii or Vancouver Island
.
Kamloops, BC?
It's got mountains around, it's not completely caught in the Conservative trap, you've got decent amenities of civilization around without the big city or suburb vibe of Metro Vancouver, (I still think it pales as a "city" compared to Toronto), but as a day trip you can head there to sightsee or pick up big box stuff.
If you want something more laid back I second Yukon.
I wouldn't get my hopes up, you want to come here and still work for your current US employer? What does Canada have to gain from that? You're not coming to fill a gap for us, you want to move to reap the benefits without any direct involvement.
This seems to be a non sequitur. OP is asking about where to live not where to find employment.
There are visas under the free trade agreement with the US and Mexico that enable movement of employees between the three countries. These have been in place since the 1990s.
Might I recommend Milo Alberta? Super cheap. They use an air raid siren every day to announce lunch (the town is closed other then the restaurant 12-1).
If you want something with mountains, you likely can not afford that.
Try Drummheller if you have not seen it its in the badlands. Looks like this
Atlantic Canada. Cheap cost of living compared to the rest of the country, beautiful environment, lots of nice small communities.
If you like mountains and your job is remote then why not try and live in somewhere in Alberta? Canmore is right next to Banff and is absolutely gorgeous. That being said Alberta is pretty much the America of Canada meaning their politics is pretty right wing. If you want to live in a province that's more left wing you can try British Colunbia which is on the other side of the rockies.
If you, or anyone else in this thread is actually serious about becoming immigrants in another country, this is a great thread for what it will actually take to get started in making the move.
Move to Baffin Island, best internet in the country. I prommy.
Port Alberni, BC
Or Merritt, BC if you want to be on the mainland
Both have all the necessary hospitals, schools, rec centers, high-speed internet, and decent access to larger cities if needed.
What kind of work are you looking for?
