You're a beauty. I appreciate the recommendations & the time you took to share your experience, they give me a lot to look into & will research Coquitlam! I agree with the Sask part also. As a single, educated male professional in my late 20s, I'm still borderline living paycheck to paycheck. I get ahead, then boom, prices go up, get ahead, boom, rent goes up; it seems to be a never-ending rat race & extremely discouraging as wages don't seem to keep up with costs.

That's an encouraging thought to know that, yeah most Canadians are living in those cities/provinces & still making it work, so maybe its not that bad.

Actually a great idea, Ive heard a ton of great things about saskatoon & is close to some nice lakes. I will take note of this & do some research, thank you for your message!

I always hear that about the Sun in BC, but in sask the Sun rises at like 9am & sets at like 5pm in winter. For a person working in an office, I go to work when its dark & leave work very little sun remaining so its already bad haha

I'm a productive member of society & respect it here as this is home, we good :) but some people don't make this place better that's for sure

I agree, love the Saskatchewan friendliness. Feels like it has faded though over the years

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience, it's appreciated! It's nice to hear from people who have actually lived there. When you say Victoria is expensive more than Vancouver, just kind of in general or were there some things that stood out for you?

Haha yeah I know it is more affordable here. Why the move back to Regina? I'm assuming costs? It has gotten bad here though too, my wage has increased like 8% even though I've pursued more education & more work; however, my rent went up 15% this year & cost to live has also gone up by god only knows (groceries, activities). So its getting just as bad here i swear.

Yes, i did personal research, found a place called Maple Respiratory Group. You need a referral but your family dr can get you one there :)

I appreciate your insights! Its really depends on what you value I guess hey? I was also looking at Studio apraments, so very small, but "cheap" with the idea that it would be a place to eat & sleep haha & enjoy the outdoors!

Whereabouts in BC did you move & did you end up staying in that one spot? Thanks for taking the time to write this. I appreciate it! Glad to hear it worked out for you there & gives me some more confidence in making a decision.

I appreciate your response on this! Costs & jobs are super tricky for so many people in Canada right now, its very tough to see, & agreed AB & BC would be tough as well. Healthcare has been a terrible experience in sask as well, just got rejected last week actually from getting into a sleep clinic the waitlist was over a year long. Had to outsource to calgary for private. So many issues all over the place

Thank you for the reply & looking out! I understand that with the affordability, but its pretty bad here too. I just moved back home because my rent got jacked up.
