Good for what? This matters in significant ways. Good for real estate prices? Regina. Good for restaurant scene? Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, and maybe Calgary. Good for kids? Probably somewhere in Quebec.

Montréal is pretty cool and as long as you put an effort learning French you'll be fine. But I know people who never even gave a try and they are fine as well. But we appreciate the effort.
Halifax is also really nice.
Like everyone else says, depends what you want.
If you can afford it, Vancouver is amazing (though, I am a biased Vancouverite.) In a good season, there are local ski mountains about 30 or 40 minutes from downtown, Whistler is a couple hours away. There's awesome food all over the place, the underground scene is a blast and even some of the licensed etc venues can be pretty awesome. In the summer, everyone wants to be outside and if you're into sporty stuff, there's a boatload to do. The weather is generally pretty mild (though climate change is messing with that.)
The transit system can be amazing, depending on where you live. (In the suburbs, like most other cities, it's kind of trash.) But there are trains, rapid busses etc if you live near any hub. And of course, bike paths galore!
Even better than Vancouver is New Westminster, even denser, more pedestrian oriented, and more affordable!
I like Red Deer.
As someone who has purchased gas there several times and once entered a Walmart, I can attest to the fact that Red Deer exists.
People say it's boring, but Ottawa is good for government jobs. Housing is expensive though.
I haven't been, but I've had a few friends from Toronto and they've all loved it.
Lots of jobs in Grande Prairie, Ab.
