  • BC not on most affordable cities list

British Columbia has failed to make an appearance in a new list of Canada's most affordable cities. 

The Royal LePage report found Quebec City and Edmonton are the top choices for relocation due in part to their lower costs of living.

The report shows that 45 per cent of Greater Vancouver residents would consider moving to the Alberta capital.

The most affordable market in the country is Thunder Bay, Ontario, with the average home price at 299-thousand, 300-dollars.
