Depends on what your skills are but I would agree that Toronto is not really the best choice to get started. For employment i would pick Saskatchewan. It has steadily growing economy and a very low cost of living.
am going to read up as much as possible to stay ahead of the work environment.

Sask. also has the lowest unemployment rates in Canada. Any prairie province would be fine in my opinion.

I think it depends what industry you're in more than anything.

It depends on industry and location. I picked my university program based on the in demand careers HRSDC has listed - but the field is packed tight within the city. The demand is really is rural areas, because people don't want to live there for whatever reason. (I hate cities, so it's a win-win for me.)

True. My husband is in tech so the city is the right place for him to be. I'll do any job as long as they pay me so it doesn't matter for me :p

I would advise not settling in the major cities when you first arrive unless you have a job in hand. The cost of living is so high that a family of 4 really needs a gross income of $150000/year just to meet the basics.

There are lots of smaller communities trying to grow into the modern age and I think anyone should consider moving to smaller communities.
