What were the largest past interprovincial (or domestic) migrations within Canada?

It's been noted that compared to the US where there was lots of inter-state movement historically (eg. the settlement of the west from the east in general, the Great Migration of millions of African Americans from the south to the north, the "Okies" who migrated to California during the Dust Bowl period, the current Sunbelt boom), in Canada, there has been little mass migration within the country between provinces, once most people settled within their part of Canada.

Many people were actually more likely to move into Canada (immigration) or out of it (emigration, especially to the US) than move between places within.

But what are the major examples of mass migration within Canada's own borders?

Franco-Ontarians settling Ontario from Quebec?

Settlement of the west (from eastern Canada, in addition to overseas immigration?)

The Klondike Gold Rush?
