Only if you’re willing to live north of the 60th parallel.
(Assuming you retire in 30 years, trying to factor in their growing residential crisis)
When I retire I can I get a decent home for about 200k in canada with about an acre to live on that is out in the boondocks, and grow some weed and vegetables? Other questions inside.

No clue where that is. Was thinking in about 15 to 20 years. Are you up for asking you some questions if your from Canada

I believe they meant living north of the line in this image you might be able to find a house for that price (probably meaning: not likely.) but that far north is not going to be great for gardening.

Yes. Look in the province of New Brunswick. The first house I found in a quick search, $118,000 CAD in the middle of nowhere. .8 acre, 1000sqft home. There’s so much for cheap. Even a nice oceanfront home is next to nothing.

You can, but access to medical care will be hard and that is important to retired people in a way younger don't understand. Access means you want a good hospital with doctors on staff who know how to treat you. There are stroke procedures only a few hospitals know how to do that are much better than typical treatment elsewhere as on example.

I know this is going to sound weird but I hate hospitals even being a nurse. I have to pop a xanax before going into one because I take welbutrin and over think alot and go down the rabbit hole that is my mind. I was just wanting to get established with a doctor or psych doctor and just go into town once a month for nessary things and picking up scrips but if the doctor would allow it use zoom or telehealth visit and just go into town and get all my stuff once a month.
