Affordability is one of the reasons experts say they’re seeing a shifting trend of Ontarians moving to its eastern neighbour. For the first time since the early 1970s more Ontarians moved Quebec in 2020-2021 than Quebecers to Ontario, according to Statistics Canada. In 2020-2021, 16,469 people moved from Ontario to Quebec while 16,370 moved from Quebec to Ontario, resulting in a net gain of 99 people, Statistics Canada said. But, Termote said Bill 96 won’t significantly hinder Ontarians moving to Quebec as English can be used easily in Montreal. In 2021, around 9,000 moved to Nova Scotia from Ontario and around 6,000 Ontarians moved to New Brunswick.
