Deciding between America and Canada.

Deciding between America and Canada.
Hi, not new here but didn't know where else to put this.
So, I want to move to either America or Canada but I cant decide on a city.
What i am looking for in a city is :
Good weather - Needs to get a good summer with not a lot of rainfall per year.
I would actually prefer it to have snow in the winter rather than warm/mild all year round.
Outgoing vibe - would be good to move to a City where there is lots to do (mainly sports wise) and the people there are generally very active and outgoing.
Good nightlife - Has to have good clubs and a real buzz to the weekends/holidays etc.
Low crime rate - Dont really want to move to a city famous for gangs!
Pretty much that.
Montreal and Toronto has been on my mind, as has nashville and boston! Need to look more into them though.
Any other cities I should consider ?
Also, are there any differences in the immigration process between USA and Canada? I'll have a look myself but any you can point out to me ?

What do you do for a living? There are a number of ways to get into Canada but often your job and your education has an impact

Re: Deciding between America and Canada.
This forum is purely to welcome new members to BE...it is not a discussion forum. Therefore I am moving your thread into the Canada forum...as I think you have a better chance of moving to Canada than the US. The US is one of the most difficult countries to move to. If you read through the link in Kim's post and if you fit into one of the categories...you may have a chance of moving to the US. If this is the case....post your questions in the US forum.
Good luck.
Good luck.
I will look more into Canada then.
thank you.

Read the "read me", with links to the wiki.
Lets face it, most of us are not here for the weather.

Re: Deciding between America and Canada.
Thanks for the replies guys.
Canada sounds like it will be less hassle so I will focus on that!
I will have a rad through the 'read me's'
Is there anyone on this forum who lives in Toronto or Montreal that can shed some light ?

Torontos the third largest city in North America if memory serves, and it covers a lot of different neighbourhoods and price points...

Re: Deciding between America and Canada.
In my opinion Vancouver is the best of Canada. Not too cold in winter, great weather in summer. Ticks your other boxes as well.
