Ottawa or Waterloo (both in the province of Ontario) would be the best spot for your talents. Both are seen as technology hubs. I'm from Ottawa and love it here. Toronto, Ontario or Vancouver, British Columbia are nice, but housing costs are almost as prohibitive as the Valley. East coast (Nova Scotia or Prince Edward Island) are awesome places people-wise and would put you on the ocean, but a job in your field may be harder (not impossible) to find.
