I seriously considered it for a while. Jobs is a serious concern for me. Many jobs in my husband and mine profession would want us to speak French, which neither of us do. He has Canadian citizenship and so do our children, so that part would be easier.
Regarding schools: If you belong to a chassidus that has a school you're fine, if you're otherwise very chassidish you should be ok as well. I'd personally just send to the Bais Yakov.
The above were my main thoughts. I was coming from Brooklyn, so housing wouldn't be a huge adjustment but if you're coming from Monsey, in order to get a big house on a private property it would probably be around a million. (I may be off about this, all my family's houses there are over a million, but they're considerably wealthy. I was looking into buying a flat, and it was about 600,000.)

In the chassidishe neighbourhood, Outremont, this is only possible if you are uber-wealthy. Private homes on small lots go for 2.5 million+. There has been a slow drip of families (mainly Belz) who have been moving out to Cote-St-Luc, where housing is way more affordable. In Outremont, most families live in apartments (one floor of a duplex/triplex). Larger families often live in a first floor and basement in order to have more space. Such RDC's with finished basements are selling for a million now. On the upside, Outremont has a park on almost every block, as well as lovely lanes behind the homes. Kids have a lot of space to play.
