heat makes me feel physically ill
if im in weather above 85 degrees-ish for more than about 2 hours, i often get really bad migraine-type headaches. doesnt matter if i hydrate frequently and/or avoid the sun as much as possible, wear a hat/use sunscreen, etc- heat makes me feel like *shit*
my mother is the same way. runs in my family, idk
cold weather doesnt bother me at ALL. with a winter jacket & hat on i'm not cold unless its below zero

Easily Mexico - specifically Polanco or Colonia Roma in Mexico City. Second choice would be Monterrey. Third choice someplace in the Yucatan or Guadalajara.

Yeah, and just ignore the dead people hanging from highway overpasses courtesy of your friendly neighborhood drug cartel. Mexico City has an insane amount of crime.

It is also a polluted sprawling hellhole with high crime and, well, Mexicans. Also, will disagree on food and wouldn't love to party there anyway (I like my kidneys exactly where they are). Weather is a question of whether you prefer too hot to too cold.

Serious Q: Have you ever actually been to all of these cities - especially Mexico City? If not, you're talking out of your ass here. Mexico City is about 70 degrees every day with a low in the 50s - when you say "too hot", you must be thinking of the Yucatan or someplace, not the temperate/cool mountainous interior of Mexico. Same for the food - I actually hate Mexican food, but even if we're talking about global food, MC wins hands down. Its restaurant scene is much more highly rated than Toronto or Montreal. You should actually visit MC sometime and come away pleasantly surprised. Toronto, OTOH, is like a boring/colder Chicago, and Montreal, while lovely, is even more frigid and smaller.

Yes, though only briefly for MC and Montreal. Toronto I've been to several times and in a choice between those 3 cities it would be my top choice.
Not liking local national food is a big strike against a place. Just like if you hate Russian food then Moscow is going to be a bit of a problem even though it has every kind of food in the city. I'm sure that since it is a massive city you can find pretty much anything, but travelling over a huge, sprawling, dangerous city to find a decent Thai place seems silly.
Toronto isn't bad at all. The feel is definitely more cosmopolitan than Chicago. Montreal has the whole French-Canadian thing which is interesting. Also, I'll note that my spanish is pretty bad which of course colors my view of MC. And you're Latino, so of course it is going to feel more like home for you. For me it definitely felt like "foreign, dangerous place full of people I don't understand who might kill me." Canada felt basically exactly the same as the US.

Do I have to keep working for a living? If so, then I could find a job in Canada much easier than Mexico even though I'd much rather live in tropical paradise than in freezing bullshit.

Fuck it. I'd move to mexico and just try to work via internet. No way I'd live in Canada. Too small/cold/boring. Rather be on some chill beach in Mexico, and able to roll over to DF.

Toronto and Montreal aren't terrible. I'd rather be UMC in one of those places than poor in Mexico. Obviously, if the hypo assumes same job/money I'm living in Mexico.

Mexico. It's cheap as fuck and you can live like a king on the beach. That being said Canada is 1000000x the country Mexico is. Living there is appealing because Mexico is a crumbling prole filled disaster where an American could be a god.

If I'm retiring on fuck-you money in this hypo, clearly Mexico. If I'm retiring as a mid-level associate, probably Canada but it's a matter of taste. If I'm retiring to an average existence in either country clearly Canada.
Average Canadian-resident outcome >>>> Average Mexican-resident outcome

I'm not sure that is right at the 0.1% level. At that 0.01% level possibly, but you're basically talking top business tycoons. That is a handful in the entire country.

I'm speculating, but I bet even in Mexico top .1% is leisure class. And that's enough for Mexico's diversity of topography and climate to top living in Canada; I don't need to be a fucking plantation owner or copper magnate or whatever.

Canada. Mexicans are a mongrel race--perhaps no better than niggers--entirely incapable of ruling themselves. It is a savage land. Also, Canadians are better looking.

Very true.
The only way you would be banging any tall beautiful statues of pure Nordic blood would be if you lived in Cabo or Cancun or some tourist trap. Then at the very least you could be ravaging some white cuties.
Otheriwse you woudl have to deal with shit gene mexican women.
