      Toronto is a very fast-paced, go go go city and it does get very overwhelming because you constantly hustling and bustling. Newfoundland has a chill European vibe to it where people are more chill and family oriented.

    Hi love, yes, one of limitations here on da rock , our public transit. that was a major convenience when I lived there in Ontario. the other thing that drove me around the bend when I came back, no shopping on Sunday, lol. boy did that take getting use to. Unfortunately not all us newfs are as friendly as we could be . Hopefully you were not treated too badly by those who choose ignorance . The one thing I loved when I moved to Ontario more than 3 decades back was getting to learn about other people's cultures from individuals themselves. Growing up in my time the snow wasn't the only white on da rock. I recall only a couple of Asian families with take-outs, an occasional East Indian family & met one black family, not sure of where the origins were from, I remember feeling like I was gonna drop through the floor when my mom asked the girl if she could feel her hair. In my mother's own way she was trying to learn something new. I'm glad to see da rock becoming more colorful than it was in the 70's .

    People from Newfoundland are world renowned for their hospitality. And it sounds like it’s well deserved. I’ve lived in Toronto, and I can relate to a lot of the things that you said about Toronto. As a woman of color, the idea of being in Newfoundland has made me feel nervous, any time I’ve thought about it, or have had a possible opportunity to do that. It sounds to me like the hospitality and warmth is extended to people of color. Maybe that’s simplistic for me to be thinking of it that way, but it does sound like a safe place for me to go.

    I was born and grew up in Toronto. I also lived in St. John's for 4 years and travelled around the island of Newfoundland. I think both places have their benefits and disadvantages, it depends a lot on the life style you prefer and your ambitions in your career choice. One thing many people don't realize is that Newfoundland has some of the best golf courses in the world. Nothing like playing golf where you keep one eye on the ball and one eye on the bull moose standing 20 yards from you.

      I lived in Ottawa for a long time. Weather is terrible. It would snow in December and that snow would never melt because of the cold cold temperatures.. Thus the sidewalks were icy until the spring thaw. At least in St. John’s there might be lots of snow but it would melt until next time. Ottawa and Montreal are bitterly cold in winter. It was a shock to my system when I first moved there from NL.

      Nova Scotia is absolutely beautiful and has a fantastic culture but having lived and gone to post secondary school in both places, trust me when I say that there is no place as incredible as Newfoundland. There’s something very special about living on an island in the North Atlantic. It’s extremely isolated however, so if you have the means or desire to visit other places in Canada while you’re a student, Nova Scotia is a better option since is connected to the mainland and much less expensive to travel to other areas. You won’t be disappointed in either place. Fantastic areas of Canada.💫 There’s an island portion of Nova Scotia called Cape Breton that would give you the island experience as well as the close proximity and ease of travel that you would have living in mainland Nova Scotia as well. Great college there as well. Halifax has a great bar and food scene as well. Very fun nightlife in both places!

    Why are so many people talking about how much they love Newfoundland and Labrador?! I was born here, lived in both of these provinces, and moved here against my will in 2009 due to my grandmother’s illness (sadly, she passed away in 2016). I am planning on moving back to Ontario next year for graduate school and job opportunities for myself and my partner in the federal government, more sources of entertainment, a greater degree of accessibility due to my disabilities (e.g., trains, busses, etc.), better medical care options for my conditions, and simply because I hate living in this province. If you happen to have one of more disabilities (e.g., epilepsy, depression, generalized anxiety disorder, physical disabilities, etc.), DO NOT move to Newfoundland and Labrador! It is simply not worth it. 😣
