Some Canadians making permanent move to Atlantic bubble over COVID-19 | CBC News: There is evidence more Canadians are relocating — in some cases, moving to the Atlantic region from other parts of the country.

At U-Haul rental locations throughout New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, trucks, vans and trailers are piling up in record numbers. There is an increase in people moving to the region from Ontario and Quebec in particular.

Megan Holwell, a realtor with Royal LePage Atlantic, said she’s seen growing interest from outside the region.

“Mainly what’s making me so busy is I have several out-of-province buyers that are looking to relocate because of COVID,” she said. “That was a huge draw for them.”

With people increasingly working from home, Holwell said buyers are more flexible with where they can live.
