Which province ?

Which province has relatively better job prospect for newly graduated nurses (RNs)? I know it is tough everywhere, but relatively speaking, is there some provinces/cities better than the others in the next few years?

The reason why I ask is I am debating which nursing school to attend, and I want to go to a school in a location where I think might give me a better chance of landing a job. I am from Toronto and personally know one RPN graduate who could not find a job locally and have since left the profession. (he was partly to blame because he did not want to relocate)

I do not want to be like him and I will go to where the jobs are, start by studying there. Any comments?

    I live in the GTA and never had an issue getting a job as an RPN (2014) Or as an RN (2017). I had jobs in both cases before I graduated, and neither were from my placement. I was very persistent, I networked, I was annoying and perused managers myself, I found out what prerequisites were needed for the areas I wanted to work in and I did them. I wouldn't worry about what school you go to, that doesn't really matter. Getting a job in the GTA may be harder than other areas but it isn't impossible, contrary to what others may say. None of my classmates had an issue getting a job either that I know of.
