Dude, go to Costa Rica. Many, many people speak English, it's a good chance to learn to speak Spanish, and it's a mountainous country on the equator for your astronomy buzz.
Belize is nice too, and probably a higher percentage of English speakers; but I'm not sure they've put quite the same emphasis on higher education.

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

I always found the people there very friendly and willing to converse in English.
Is it Peel or St Catherines that's the English speaking party street? I thought it was Peel, which would explain your luck there as it's frequented by the English resients. But I could be getting them backwards and St Catherines is the English speaking street.
Yeah, I usually used St. Catherine's as my main thoroughfare. Crescent St. had some good places (at least back when I was there).

I think it would depend on your major. You should try and pick the best school for your field and move forward from there, not look at prices and see if they're any good.
Talk to your professors, they should be able to give you some insight on which schools are well known in your field.

UoIT is a great school. Tuition here is subsidized for Canadians, but not for foreigners so you're tuition is going to probably be about double what locals are paying. However, there is talk of ramping up foreign student numbers so there may be deals to be had in the near future.
Check out the "Future Students" section, and look at "International Students". They give all kinds of info on things like cost of living, acceptance etc.

Manitoba likes to think it has Universities... but they're really just run-down pieces of crap with 80-year old professors who make their grad students teach the class while they take sabbaticals every year. Not kidding. Big battle going on right now, too. University of Manitoba wants to double the costs for grad students in the next few years and everyone is fighting back.
University of Winnipeg is a "better" school, but still not great.
Macleans Magazine puts an issue out yearly about the top Universities in Canada.
Look through this.

I did my first year in Thunder Bay going to Lakehead University, enjoyed it for the most part.
Rest of it I went to the University of Winnipeg, and I concur.
