Retiring To Canada Climate in Canada Canada is known for its “challenging” weather. Go to its Rockies and Pacific region if you want the mildest climate in the country. This area extends from the coast of British Columbia to the crowded cities of Vancouver and Victoria, and Prince Rupert and Jasper.
Canada is quite different than the USA in many ways that will reflect on this move. We have been to France several times and are considering Normandy, approximately 30 minutes or so from the coast. We want to be in a village buying a stone house. We do speak French albeit rusty, so we are taking lessons plus home schooling from apps.
I do not believe you can retire to Canada as you describe. You can vacation here for up to 6 months at a time but the two basic ways into the country are 1) a PR who must have an occupation on THE LIST or 2) a TWP with pre-arranged employment. As a visitor you would not be entitled to any benefits from the Gov't of Canada.
My wife Heather and I are planning to retire from Ottawa, Canada to the South of Spain within the next 12-18 months. Having said that, we are planning a 4 week visit this year, provided it's allowed, from mid December to mid January to find out the lay of the land and where we would like to live.

At this very moment (6 o'clock evening 29th September) it is 30 degrees outside.

2) Timing of selling your property in the UK may make a difference on whether you pay tax in UK or Spain. You will need to understand which is preferential. 3) It is quite unwise to sell up and go! Many people find that they need to return to the UK, for whatever reason and find themselves priced out of the property market.
Commuting to school from home is possible in larger cities. But, need to consider transport time. There are typically a fair amount of housing available both in shared living or individual apartments. Some students will rent a small condo or apartment. Professors are adequate, but there is a lot of teaching by rote.
