A New Top 25 Places To Live In Canada This Year Ranking Thinks Quebec Ain't Where It's At

The typical Ontario vs. Quebec competition continues, and according to Maclean's Top 25 Places To Live In Canada In 2021, Ontario's winning this time around.

Out of the top 25, not one spot in Quebec made the list — but 11 places in Ontario did.

As for all of Canada though, it wasn't anywhere in Ontario that was crowned #1. Instead, Halifax, Nova Scotia was ranked the top place "to live and work remotely in 2021" in the country.

Macleans' annual ranking differed a little from past years because it "takes into account that more of us are able to work and study from home."

I guess all we can say is... better luck next year, Quebec.
