I talked with my parents this weekend, and they want to sell the condo (I don't know if I've talked about this on here before: my parents and I jointly own the condo. They paid the downpayment, I'm taking care of the mortgage payments). And they want to start soon. Since my boyfriend and I are kind of messy people and we have a lot of stuff, I don't think selling while I live there will work, so my parents have decided the best idea would be for me to move out soon. I was hoping to wait until after I defend, but everyone involved seems to be dragging their heels, so I don't see that happening soon. Nor does it look likely that I'll be getting a fisheries job any time soon, so I'm not going to wait for that and just get a McJob to pay the bills. My mom thinks I'll be more likely to find work if I'm not in Prince George, so I'll be moving cities as well.
I have no leads or job prospects anywhere in particular, so I have to decide where I want to go based on the likelihood of getting work. So, friends list, what Canadian cities have somewhat active job markets and a low enough cost of living that I can survive on a retail/food service job?
