Bit of a meh list like most of them, seems to be heavily weighted by income and wealth (big surprise, most of the places in the top 10 are suburbs) though Hamilton apparently made big gains on their list going from 77 last year to 41 this year.
No idea why Boucherville rounds out the top spot. I've been there a few times and it seemed the same as any other sleepy Montreal 'burb.

MoneySen$e clickbait. although it is true: Port Alberni is a hole. Boucherville? Really? there are some nice parts, and a lot of mcmansions, but #1? Really?
Okotoks at 120? MoneySen$e clearly has a hate-on for Alberta.
In all fairness, the list is almost random.
I have heard that Thompson (MB) is the Port Moresby of Canada.

Never been to Port Moresby, but based on what google turns up about it I would say that likening it to Thompson would be very kind and generous... to Thompson.
I wouldn't live in Thompson unless someone paid me oodles of cash to do so. Even by Northern Manitoba standards it's depressing.

If only Okotoks and Calgary were combined....they would be number 1!
So Thompson has nice beaches too? I wouldn't mind to live in Thompson
haha, yeah maybe.
Apparently Port Moresby is among the most wretched places to live according to the perennial lists produced by the Economist, etc.
Quote:
According to a survey of world cities by the Intelligence Unit of The Economist, Port Moresby is one of the world's least livable cities (ranked 139 of 140 cities rated).[2]

I would say that the prairies are pretty . . . um, . . . safe. We don't worry about: rock slides; avalanches; mudslides; hurricanes; earthquakes; high pollution rates. We have merely freezing cold winter weather and the occasional summer tornado. Lol!

The pics above are incredible!
Pretty sure a lot more people have frozen to death in the prairies than died from any of your other listed fears.
My area did very well, 3 of the top 20. West Van would be my top choice.
