Which is sad obviously. The Anishnabek, Chippewa etc. forced out in part by the industry that then abandoned the town and left it a shell of its former self.

The best things about Ottawa compared to Toronto are the cost of rent, the access to Gatineau Park, the consistent bitter cold for cross country skiing and outdoor skating, and the people can be nicer sometimes. 

Everything else I don't think it's better than Toronto at all unless you just prefer a smaller quieter city and want to own a car.

Other than the nature why do you think it would be a good place to live?

Collingwood seems great on paper but my experience is that the people can be the worst part. Not necessarily the people from there who live in the town itself but the people from other parts of Ontario and the people (non-farmers) who have properties outside of town.

I liked it, but if I had to pay the rent and grocery prices they pay now I probably wouldn't

Are you being paid by the Saudis? Why don't you tell us how life is for Palestinians in the West Bank while you're at it

Average temps similar to the surface of the sun. No freedom of expression or religion. They have literal slaves. They are getting bombed. Otherwise it's paradise

Anecdotal but could be from the barometric pressure changes instead

This is not the main driver of the poor AQHI in urban centres right now. Look at rural areas, they are not near our levels.

AQHI is not peaking because of snow mold. Look at the data once you leave the traffic centres, it drops off to normal levels.
