Just wanted to note that before everyone buys a house in Nelson.

Funny you mentioned that as the one person in our company who has been allowed to work remotely full time is actually someone who moved from Ontario to Nelson! The company had actually started piloting full time work from home prior to the lockdown, although you still had to be within driving distance from a regional office.
Anyway, I've been entertaining the idea for a couple of years (unrelated to politics) of moving out east as we have an office in Moncton. Now Moncton itself seems kind of dull/rundown, but I like the idea of living in a house looking out at the sea about 30-60 mins drive away.
Anyone have any thoughts on living in that region (Moncton/PEI/Amherst, NS) that are based on actual experience out there? I've only visited once many years ago, but our next trip will probably be out that way as my wife has never been.
