I moved to Thunder Bay 1979 and will not leave. It has everything and more to offer to everyone. I came here from Montreal by way of Arctic Bay Nunavut. It hosts one of Canada's top ranked universities, world class cross country skiing, and restaurants featuring food from many different countries in including the world famous Hoito.
Great video of Thunder Bay! No other city in Ontario is situated in such a beautiful natural setting in fact in all of Canada Thunder Bay is only second to Vancouver for it's natural beauty. How many cities in Canada have a breathtakingly beautiful backdrop like the Sleeping Giant? or Mount McKay? Can you name them? Thunder Bay must have the most beautiful harbor view than any other city in Canada! Thunder Bay truly is... SUPERIOR BY NATURE!
Hi trying to trace long lost family wonder if you could help....they lived in thunder bay surname of Love or Benson boys love...hope you don't mind my asking...I live in th UK hope to visit your beautiful town one day🙂 kind regards lynne
Hey bud I'm a neighbor from the west Manitoba, I've never heard anything except how clean and beautiful your city is. I'll find out for myself when I go for my first time this fall.
great video thanks for sharing this video, I actually have a question about the place named Humble Bay near Thunder Bay ? I can not find any information about this place online and I was wondering if you know any information about humble bay or if you have any picture of humble bay ? many thanks
Love this! I spent 5 weeks in Thunder Bay last summer. The weather was PERFECT. I walked every day and the wild flowers were amazing. Yes, there is a lot of cold/snow in the winter; however, there is also a lot of SUN! The people there are so kind!:). Thunder Bay also has the best food, coffee shops, restaurants, and gift shops.
@@StevenBill Grew up in FF with immediate family in Tbay. Also lived in Tbay for 4 years. I have driven that highway at least 100 times. It is 45 min to Finmark Rd at minimum. Even Google says 1 hr 50. So unless you live in Murillo and drive like a maniac? Just letting the people who don't live there and would travel for that vid honest info.
I am really anxious to know and enjoy all these beautiful landscapes. I love natural environments. I hope to be there in October 2021. I will study at Confederation College. I am so grateful by your video. It was great!
Thunder Bay is my hometown and where I was born and raised m.. you are correct ! We plug our cars into the house so they start in the morning! I’ve felt as cold as -45 to -48 Celsius! The winters are long and cold but it’s a dry cold so easy to dress for :) Days are longer in thunder bay too. Summer it stays light outside till 10:30/10:45 at night. I’d say average in winter is in the -20s/-30s but they don’t seem as harsh these last few years
I’ll be moving here next year for a couple years I’m happy to see that’s there’s so much to do! I’m hearing mixed reviews of the city but that’s with everywhere I guess lol
@@ashton.snelgrove can u plz elaborate ?? Cz its very very important for me as i m planning to chose lakehead uni for my higher studies and plan to come on winter intake with my family including my small baby..
@@sachindraminiwan2519 I would do your own research, but since your asking me. I was born there in 98 and moved west a few year later. According to the RCMP, Thunder Bay has one of the highest murder rates in Canada. That survey was done in 2019. The murder rate 5.56 per 100 thousand. The population of Thunder Bay is 107k people. Most people in Canada when traveling there know it’s not a safe city to live in. Like I said the only redeeming quality is the nature. Which is very true, the outside of Thunder Bay is amazing, and it’s beautiful. But once you enter Thunder Bay, it’s a whole different story depending on where you end up.
@@ashton.snelgrove thanks a lot for the reply.. 😍😍 yep i read a lot about thunderbay and was in2 minds cz of the crime rate..its always good to know a Canadian's perspective towards his own city nope..
Born here ... moved in 86 but retun to visit family. Sad to see such a decline. Tent cities in many areas. Simpson St looks like downtown Detroit. Block after block of empty and abandoned buildings that are literally falling in on themselves. I live in a community with a much larger indigenous population and see none of the public intoxication or people passed out in doorways or just wandering into traffic whenever they feel like crossing the street. Roads and potholes that will take out a vehicle. The bridge on River St was closed last year when I visited, and still closed again more than a year later! 1 theater, no Costco but 9 or 10 Dollaramas and 3 Walmarts. So many cities with lesser population have Costco and Walmart and Superstore and still manage to thrive! Local government really needs an overhall. Blocking a business like Costco is utter nonsense. It would create decent paying jobs and bring in a lot of business from the outlying communities. Oh, and your 1 hospital idea was crap! The city I once loved as a kid literally has nothing to offer kids in the way of entertainment. No roller skating rink, 2 ski hills left out of 5 or 6. 1 outdoor pool. The city is going in reverse, not moving forward with the times. Old and dirty with nothing and nobody doing anything about it. When my family visit me they honestly can't believe the difference in 2 cities the exact same size. Unfortunate that people are okay with living in a corrupt and extremely racist city. So much hatred for the indigenous population that it baffles the mind. I did not feel safe when I was there visiting this time. I just don't understand why you put up with be told ... its the climate. That's why we can't fix the roads. That is crap. You choose to use sub standard materials and wait too long to fix the problems. Way worse climates have far superior roads. Someone is lining their pockets and telling you a pack of lies. Seriously, go and visit different cities and see how different you are living for the sake of an elite group of wealthy individuals who call the shots while they vacation for 4 months of the year on your tax dollars. In the words of Bette Davis ... what a dump! Good luck. I hope I never have to come back to this place!
@@karlfalckh3498 I live in Burlington Ontario. And yes I have been many places, and still none seem to have the racist attitudes that plague Thunder Bay. Winter is bad here too but the roads manage to be repaired quickly with no excuses about the climate. No boarded up buildings that have sat empty for 10 years. Every city has their issues but Thunder Bay has unfortunately fallen into a noticeable decline that nobody seems to want to remedy. My last visit a month ago I needed a vet for my dog. Not one in the entire city! And a five year wait list if you actually live there. No Doctors and no dry cleaning. Seriously, what city doesn't have a dry cleaners? Plus you are on one of the biggest fresh water lakes in the world and yet you can't find a fish market anywhere. It is like the city stopped 25 years ago and never grew. And it only seems to be getting worse not better.
Wrote you a reply but it was removed. Let's try again. Lots of crime and racism in Burlington and Southern Ontario. Your roads down there are horrible. We've got lots of places to buy fresh fish, including East Coast Lobster. And we can catch fresh fish to eat right inside the city limits, whereas your fish are toxic. Dry cleaners are coming back but it's crazy you base a city's merit on dry cleaning amenities. There's a shortage of vets everywhere in Ontario, however we are now getting a Vet school. Please stop being negative and bitter.@@GO-jv9bb
Lake Superior is the LARGEST freshwater lake in the world in terms of surface area and third largest by volume en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Superior Lake Superior holds 10% of ALL OF THE WORLDS surface fresh water! There is a good reason why they say Thunder Bay "Superior by Nature"
Am going to live here in one month form now. on tik tok I look up thunder bay and the first thing I see is hookers and drug dealers roam the city 24/7 and 8 homicide in 2019 I want to see someone say something good about the city
I was thinking bout moving to your town till I hear about the corruption in the police force.. scary.moved to another quite town that has a good police force.
Spent 26 years in Thunder Bay and miss it everyday. When I visit, I hate leaving. A ton of beauty and an outdoors enthusiasts paradise!

Thank you for doing such a fantastic job of showing Thunder Bay. Just a foot note to anyone reading this.....Quetico is almost 2 hrs from the city.
It's 35 minutes.

Great show about Thunder Bay ⚡
Loved your last video. When I want some ART, I go to your channel. Thank you for watching!
I was in Thunder Bay one time in late July. The weather was perfect but I don't want to even think of what it is like in the winter time. 😫
Maybe too far for me! TY for a great feature!👍
Thank you for watching
Fantástico paisaje
Always a pleasure to have my Spanish friend here! Thank you for watching!
Another great update on this area in Ontario
Ontario has some really nice cities. Thank you for watching!
I have to admit, I have never been to Kakabeka falls in my entire life. I was born in Thunder bay AND I NEVER SAW IT! 😔
Well done!
Even though i have not been to Thunder bay in 22 years, i still think about that place often :) one of the best places to live.
It is one of the best places to live.. if you’re not indigenous.
@@JJ-om1qm sad but it is true.
Mmm, this one is wrth to consider! People focus in the main cities, and here's a hidden gem waiting to be discovered!
I am really anxious to know and enjoy all these beautiful landscapes. I love natural environments. I hope to be there in October 2021. I will study at Confederation College. I am so grateful by your video. It was great!
Heyyy are you still in confederation college?
I started to study at Confederation College at September. I am still in Chile...

I hear TB gets pretty cold in the winter!!! Brrrrrrr!🥶
Yyyeehhaaaw! Yes! It can get cold! But that is Canada. Great place and great people. Thank you for watching!
Might as well embrace the cold n do outdoor activities! 😜

How is ? Looking to relocate there

@@Littlefootization how is the weather like in T Bay? Do we have up to -35 in winter???
@@brightima279 Yes ! It got -40 the coldest day. But you can stay home inside the apartment is nice and warm. I have no problem with the cold
I lived in GTA for 2 years…I didn’t know Ontario had canyons 😳

If you like outdoors....its one of the best places in Canada. Hope you love it.
The only redeeming quality is nature. Don’t be out and about in the city past a certain (just a recommendation)
