From one tropical gal to another......I totally understand.
For more diversity, as Fiesta Mama said, you have to go to Toronto.....the most culturally diverse city in the world...its a city of immigrants! I know you would feel more comfortable there (and it is not as cold and less snow than Ottawa lol). Toronto is very different from the rest of Canada.
My friend who was working in Calgary, who is an immigrant from Africa, but was raised in Toronto, just took a 50% pay decrease and ran back to Toronto because she just needed more diversity.

I am in the DR now but when I return to downtown Toronto in the spring I would be happy to show you around.

In the spring people will come out of hibernation and it will be more fun!

Good luck!
