First of all, the biggest cost of living in Canada is housing. The price of each city is different, so the cost of each family is different: renting an apartment with two rooms, one kitchen and one bathroom in downtown Vancouver, about 70 square meters, costs about 1000 Canadian dollars; It costs about 800 Canadian dollars in Toronto; It costs about 600 Canadian dollars in Montreal; This kind of apartment has complete facilities and can live directly with bedding. There are cold and warm air, 24-hour hot water (free), and some apartments use electricity for free. There are plenty of parking spaces, gyms, indoor swimming pools and 24-hour security at the bottom of the building, which is as safe and comfortable as staying in a hotel. Such apartment buildings are also graded by region. If they are slightly out of the city center, the price will be different.

Secondly, the daily expenses of the family. The cost of food, chicken, fish, meat and eggs in Canada is similar to that in China. It's almost half-buy and half-give at the discount, and it's at the freshest time, such as 9.99 cents a dozen eggs or a big pork chop. Milk is cheaper than in China, and the prices of vegetables and fruits are similar to those during the Spring Festival in China. Many of them are organic foods, which have a strict expiration date and can be safely eaten. Most new immigrants come to work overtime, bring enough housework, and don't even need to buy clothes in a short time. Fixed monthly expenses, as well as telephone charges, cable TV fees and transportation fees. Excluding the installation fee, you have to pay about 60 Canadian dollars, and the monthly fixed basic telephone bill is about 25 Canadian dollars. You can make local calls for free, and domestic and international calls are charged separately-but you can buy a phone card to make long-distance calls, which is very cheap. Cable TV fees must be paid. If you don't connect cable TV, you can hardly see a clear TV picture. Depending on the number of TV channels connected, the fee is 30-40 Canadian dollars per month. In terms of transportation costs, the general monthly ticket price of subway or bus is about 80 Canadian dollars, and it is more than 2 Canadian dollars at a time. Prices vary from city to city, but there is little difference. If you buy a car or rent a car, according to different personal safety records and different cities, the price of insurance premium ranges from 60 Canadian dollars to 300 Canadian dollars per month.

Don't worry about the cost of education. Tuition for children from primary school to high school is free. The milk money of a child under the age of 18 is enough for your family. Parents don't have to worry about tuition when their children go to college. Children can independently apply for interest-free bank loans, government grants or school scholarships. After graduation, the loan can be appropriately reduced, and the Canadian government will help bear it. Adult English learning for new immigrants is basically free, and some schools subsidize transportation expenses to help take care of younger children.

In terms of medical expenses, the medical insurance plan is one of the benefits of Canada. When new immigrants get a medical card, they can see a doctor for free. The government will bear the cost of eating and drinking Lazar in the hospital, and you don't have to pay for it unless you go to the pharmacy to buy medicine yourself. If there is insurance, some drugs only need to pay about 10%.

When buying a house in Canada, the owner of the house also owns the land forever. One-time payment has the same discount as that in China, but it is usually a ten-year or twenty-year mortgage loan. Down payment: for buyers who have jobs or investment immigrants in Canada, the down payment is 30%, and the loan interest is generally 3.5-4.9%.
