Leaving Toronto
Before leaving Toronto:
Cancel your Toronto Hydro and Enbridge accounts, and contact Manitoba Hydro to establish service. You'll enjoy dramatically lower electricity rates in Manitoba—some of the lowest in Canada—compared to Ontario's higher costs.
If selling your Toronto property, your equity could potentially buy a home outright in Winnipeg or leave substantial savings. This dramatic cost difference in real estate is a primary draw for Toronto-to-Winnipeg relocators. Work with real estate professionals in both markets.
This is a 3-day moving journey. Toronto's condo buildings often require elevator reservations and loading dock bookings—check with building management for specific requirements. Book your move 6-8 weeks in advance.
Arriving in Winnipeg
Welcome to Winnipeg! Here's what to know upon arrival:
Visit Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI) within 90 days to exchange your Ontario license and register your vehicle. Manitoba uses a public auto insurance system—you'll obtain basic Autopac coverage through MPI. This differs from Ontario's private insurance market.
Apply for your Manitoba Health Card as soon as you establish residency. There may be a waiting period, so keep your OHIP coverage active during the transition. Once approved, Manitoba Health covers standard medical services.
Winnipeg and Toronto are in the same time zone, so no adjustment needed. However, be prepared for colder, snowier winters—Winnipeg regularly sees -30°C temperatures. Invest in quality winter gear and consider block heaters for your vehicle.
Winnipeg Transit offers bus service for approximately $112/month. The city is more spread out than Toronto—a car is helpful. Popular neighborhoods include Wolseley for bohemian charm, River Heights for families, The Exchange District for arts and urban living, and Osborne Village for walkability and nightlife.
