Ha, you just described me, except with a more expensive house and Mini van instead of pick up. I'm in Manitoba though so the economy is working fine for us, slow and steady she goes. Looking forward to Mexico next week too. We sock away on average 3k/mth and have no debt other than the vehicle and mortgage. House was just assessed at 200k more than we paid last year too.

I'd say gtfo of Quebec and settle in a nice prairie town like Winnipeg or Saskatoon. Opportunity is everywhere. My wife has a 6 figure job working entirely remotely, lots of jobs are pretty portable these days. I'm in construction. Nothing flashy, just steady.
