From affordable housing in Alberta to high taxes in Quebec, there are many widely accepted claims about the cost of living in different parts of the country. But are these preconceptions accurate?

The cheapest places to live would be Quebec. If you speak French, that’s the place to be.
After that Manitoba and Saskatchewan are fairly cheap. They are slightly less wealthy than other provinces, and the winters can be brutal, but overall they are very homey and community oriented provinces (at least Manitoba is, I assume Saskatchewan would be similar).
Newfoundland is another possible cheap option. It’s not as cheap as Manitoba or Saskatchewan, and it gets way less sun + way more rain, but it’s very scenic. Lots of cool outdoorsy stuff to see if you go there. New Brunswick is probably also relatively cheap but I haven’t looked in a while so it would be good to compare.
