What are the best and worst provinces in Canada for being a car enthusiast? Insurance, roads, salt, laws, etc. Trying to decide what air force bases I should put in my posting preferences.

Manitoba

There's salt everywhere except maybe some parts of BC. Insurance is expensive in BC and Ontario. Roads are shit in the prairies, everything is just straight roads or dirt. Laws are kind of shitty everywhere

Alberta and BC are the best. The rust is easily the worst in the world in Alberta but other than that it's pretty great aside from no tracks within 2 hours.

Anything is street legal basically.
Millions of km's of any type of road you want.
Insurance companies rarely ask for inspections. And when they do it's just a basic safety inspection.

i knew a guy that lived way up there and had a R33 GTR Skyline he drove yearround. my job was looking for people to relocate from Alberta to up north and if it wasnt for my girlfriend i would have considered it heavily

also fuck anything from out east. i was a mechanic for years and anything that came from Ontario or the far East coast you had to get the torch for everything. i remember about 5 years ago we failed an out of Province inspection on a 4 or 5 year old Mazda 3 from Ontario because the frame had rust rot already

Insurance in BC is quite cheap by comparison. It's provincial insurance in BC, so you guys pay half to 1/3 of what we do in Ontario.

Ontario is objectively one of the worst. Terrible BRINE used on the roads in the winter (not rock salt, but that liquid shit that coats your vehicle). Our speed limits are cucked to hell, they're bringing photo radar back to fuck us even more, we have incredibly restrictive laws on modifications, as well as incredibly arbitrary laws used for cops to go fishing (see window tint, licence plate protective covers).

Basically, unless you are driving a bone stock Hyundai Elantra, cops will have some excuse to pull you over and write you a ticket.

Plus we have E-tests here in most of Ontario, designed to rob your wallet and justify E-cuckery by our current nigger politicians.

>>17344142

If you're trading it in to a good dealership, they'll give you a good price. Remember you're saving taxes on the non-trade in costs of whatever you buy. Do the math, see what makes the most sense. When I traded in my old RAV4 it was apples to apples for the extra money I'd get selling private, vs. the money I was saving on taxes by trading it in.

>>17344615

Quebec is just the worst province in general. It has the worst people, too.


Ontario sucks because we have so many chinks/poos driving around. They cause insurance rates to skyrocket with their shit driving and fraud.

I've been driving catless for years, you have to be a retard to get pulled over for modifications

It coats everything, everywhere on the car. Unless you have access to a lift that you can go under the vehicle and pressure-wash the shit off of it every week, it just sits under the car and rots away.

>>17347604

Used the 407 about 3 weeks ago, saw two pigs with people pulled over. I don't think there's been a time I've taken it that I haven't seen OPP parked somewhere on there.

The photo radar isn't for red light cameras, it's for speed. They've had red light cameras for a long time now. They're bringing back PR for speed enforcement. We had it in the 1990s and it was hated universally. It's a cash grab. Vote conservative, they killed PR last time and they will kill it again.

>E-tests are free now

Yes, as of literally 2 months ago they are free. And by free you mean tax payer money is used to pay the shops who were forced to buy the expensive equipment for the tests.

FYI if you were driving catless for years, you would've failed the E-test. Unless it's a new enough car that you're not required to take one yet.

Also I know you're trolling, but fuck off m8.

Reading this thread: the best place is where you aren't, the worst place is where you are.

We've got (almost) no fun roads, universally low speed limits, relatively high cost of ownership (insurance/purchase price), cops WITH QUOTAS or "goals" as they say and no law against it, and each province has at least 1 bad regulation (emissions, safety, mods, etc).

So.. All of Canada is pretty shit. Move south like all the smart people, even their flyover states are more interesting than most anywhere in Canada.

Well.. Maybe in 3.5 years when "that" whole thing is over.

>Unless you have access to a lift that you can go under the vehicle
You can buy angled sprayer wands and they extend far enough under to rinse the bottom off. And you probably didn't read the multiple past threads about how to deal with salt. All of them had people posting their methods of getting rid of salt not just at home, but even when they commute to work. Easy going and not much trouble.

But you insist that you cannot do it unless you have a lift that is gold plated and it must be personally made by Hephaestus or you cannot rinse the bottom. That is bullshit.

Go and read those archived salt threads and see what people did when they went to work. Their cars don't rot. I have a friend that only has very little rust. He rinses.

Why walk down the path of car harm by trying to invent reasons why you will not try to get rid of the salt? Be positive and think of ways to do it cheaply and without much bother. Other people did in the past salt threads. Read them all because different threads can have different ideas. Certainly not all posters are online to post in each thread nor do they want to copypasta their responses again.

yeah but you have to buy an insurance from the SAAQ at a fixed rate. It help a lot when you drive an old mustang gt but it suck when you got a normie shitbox.

I've been here for a year and a bit. I know it.

There are no fun roads in Manitoba, prairies are by far the worst to drive in.

Edmonton sucks because of all the speed cameras, but the low taxes, pld and LDA more than make up for it.

Can ride my motorcycle for about 11 months a year in Vancouver, so BC is the best imo, best of the worst is probably a tie between Ontario and Quebec

Quebec is the worst place in Canada in general, but Ontario is probably the worst for purely car-related reasons, especially in more populated areas like around Toronto.

Insurance was nuts when I lived in Ontario, probably better now that I'm a shit ton older, still I was pretty satisfied when I moved to Manitoba.

I agree newfoundland is the worst

Why leafs hate so much on Québec ? I'm a french foreign student here and I think it's fine.
When it comes to driving most of the roads are not worse than in France

Holy shit, how bad are the roads in France?

How is Victoria Island?

I mean the highways are in tip top shape but other than that, city roads are not that much better than the ones in Canada

I've travelled a lot of southern Canada.. pretty much everything from BC to Quebec. Construction and salt problems are comparable everywhere.. always bad around cities. The coasts are the best for driving.. Vancouver if you want meetups/car scenes/communities, and Quebec if you just want challenging/fun/beautiful roads. BC has some great roads too, but it’s easy to get why most of Canada’s best drivers come from Quebec when you drive their roads.

BC is GOAT for off-roading and our highways are a blast once you're 100 km away from Vancouver in any direction. The Crowsnest, the Fraser Canyon, Highway 99, the Coquihalla (sometimes), Highway 8, and
Highway 16 are all awesome drives.

As an Alberta, I personally think somewhere like Kelowna is probably the best place to be a car guy in Canada.

>short, easy winters that don't have an insane amount of snow or salt on the roads so rust isn't a big issue
>roads smooth af in most places
>mountains with insanely fun roads to drive on are just an hour or two drive away
>west side road is unreal fun to rip on
>tons of young people interested in cars already
>ample amounts of sunshine and great weather for cruising in the summer

That's just from an outsider looking in perspective, however. I know there's a ton of massive tools and dbags in Kelowna, but overall seems like a great place to be a car guy.

What do you drive?

Worst is Quebec because of the shitty quality of the roads.
