Everything I hear about Quebec makes me like it more. If only it were easier for me specifically to immigrate
Quebec also has the cheapest car insurance, phone bills, housing. They have political donation contribution limits capped at $100 a year and they list your name and which party you support politically on elections Quebec. They have areas that actually affordable for the minimum wage. They are the province thatโs the furthest away from a 2-party system as the Quebecois actually give the smaller parties a chance of government unlike the rest of Canada where people tend to worship the 2 establishment political parties no matter.
Itโs no wonder conservatives complain they speak French because it is the best protection against fascist propaganda.
I just moved to get back from Ontario, and my car insurance doesn't seem to have changed much. On the other hand, I was able to buy a house for 2/3 or less of what it would have cost anywhere in Southern Ontario.
We have discovered some drawbacks, but all in all it has been a positive experience.

Quebec actually has some of the most forgiving policies for immigration in the country. Speaking French is a big plus and makes it much easier to get in, but a lot of people go through Quebec to end up elsewhere in Canada.
I have no skilled jobs and would still meed to learn French. From when I looked into it, it seemed the province specifically needed to nominate you
