Your GTA guide is ready
Trading the cost and the gridlock for the coast, the climate, and a milder pace, with Toronto still a direct flight away. Here is what the move really looks like.
Download the GTA to the Island guide
Built for people moving from Toronto, Mississauga, and across the GTA. It covers what your equity buys here, what changes when you switch provinces, the flights home and the time change, and where GTA folks settle.
Inside the guide:
- The money, plainly: what your GTA equity actually buys on the Island, with detached benchmark prices side by side
- The provincial switch: BC's MSP and the wait, moving to ICBC and a BC licence, and the GST-plus-PST tax change
- Getting here and home: direct Toronto flights to Victoria and Vancouver, the last hop to the Island, and the three-hour time change
- Where GTA movers tend to land: Greater Victoria, Nanaimo, the Cowichan Valley, Parksville and Qualicum, Port Alberni, and the Comox Valley
- What nobody tells you: why it can be a real upgrade, wet winters, the time change, and the family-doctor wait
