Where to spend last few months in Canada
So I've been living in Regina SK almost a year and I'm thinking at the end of this summer,maybe in September of moving elsewhere,my WHV expires end of may 2016, I'm 31yr old male,no gf,kids etc.
I was thinking BC but I'm really not sure,any recommendations?

Re: Where to spend last few months in Canada
BC is completely different from Regina ............ whether you stay on the Mainland, go to Vancouver Island, or to Whistler / Blackcomb with the ski bums
One warning about Whistler / Blackcomb ............. it is apparently pretty difficult to get accommodations there as a worker, and it is expensive to rent.
You shouldn't miss the Rockies
and the Maritimes are also very different from the rest of Canada, let alone Regina!

it does depend on how he comes
driving, yep .............. he can join all the other tourists in high season!
In that case, I would recommend seeing the Rockies either before July or after September, and after snow melt but before snow fall
but he might fly .............. then he'd have to look down on them

The usual suspects - Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver. If you don't like harsh winters, then Vancouver. If you want to experience a different culture, then Montreal. If you want nightlife, Toronto or Montreal (both are better than Vancouver IMO).

Re: Where to spend last few months in Canada
Thanks for the ideas but I still haven't decided ha!
Im also thinking around southern Ontario maybe?
I would like somewhere with nightlife but I guess not knowing anyone doesn't give you much nightlife anyway :/
My background is mechanical work but I could do with any work I could find if it means I can live it up for the last few months but that also means it can't be too expensive to live there as I may be working a low paid job,once I can pay the bills and have some spending money that's good enough.
I guess it will be one of the named above,I just have to narrow it down lol
