Moving from British Columbia to Ontario

About 14,162 people moved from British Columbia to Ontario in each of the last two years, according to Statistics Canada (14,677 in 2024/2025, 13,646 in 2025/2026). That is 30.1% of everyone who left British Columbia for another province or territory, making Ontario its #2 destination. See the British Columbia to Ontario guide →

On the road

  • The route crosses the Rocky Mountains. From October to March, snow on the mountain passes can hold trucks for a day, and British Columbia requires winter tires or chains on most of its highways.
  • The only Canadian road between east and west runs north of Lake Superior (Highways 11 and 17 in Northern Ontario). Winter storms can close it for hours, which is one reason long hauls cost more in January and February.
