Based on what you know of me and what you know of Iceland, should I move from Canada to there?

No. It seems like a good idea at first. Relished the idea for a while myself. Is an awesome place to visit but I feel (others do too) like becoming an intergrated citizen is quite difficult, in the eyes of the locals.
You'll forever be an alien. Very very very homogeneous sociey. Even if you look and talk like them you're an outsider.

Iceland. On second thought, neither.
I would go to Costa Rica instead! Much cheaper, warmer and friendlier!

I've heard Icelandic is by far, the hardest language to learn.
I've also heard that the cultural acceptance of magical tiny wood elves is so common there that Icelanders will avoid building in areas they are believed to live.

If you really want to live on an island with picturesque little towns of fishing communities, move to Newfoundland! The people are super nice and will go out of their way to accomodate you.
The economy is getting better and better with the oil industry booming over there.
If you're into hunting and fishing it's paradise! Snowmobile country, warm family centered values and happy people in general! Also, the girls are pretty in a "little something-can't quite put your finger on it" way. Looking to diversify the gene pool they'll pop out 10 kids for ya if you want!

Face it, you're not moving to Iceland or Finland!
Figure out all the forms and the fees and I guarantee you'll change your mind!
Lets say you did... for what, you like metal and blond girls?!?!
Loll, dude, come on!
Unless you got 50k in the bank and 18 months to go through the application process it sounds like a pipe dream to me!

From what I've heard Iceland is quite a beautiful place, but that's pretty much the only upside. Lot's of people that I know have been there and enjoyed their visit but wouldn't move there. The few Icelanders I've met say it's a rather small place and the young people want to get away. So if looking for peace and quiet, plus a very small pool of people to get to know, it might be your place.
Can't say much about Finland since that's where I am, so I've got a hard time giving any unbiased info on how the country is in general. We have quite a lot of chilly and wet weather with short summers.

If you go to Iceland, you are on an island and need to fly a long way to get to anywhere outside the island.
If you go to Finland, you are next door to Sweden, Russia, Estonia and the rest of Europe is not far.
Ease of movement would be a big factor in my decision.
If I wanted to be stuck on an island for a while, I'd go to Iceland.
The population is Iceland is around 300,000.
Finland around 5 million.
Check out availability of work, wages, health care, ease of finding somewhere to live etc.

Based on my extremely limited knowledge of both countries, I'd choose Iceland over Finland; but really, I'd choose neither. Music scene and badass scenery (both in women and in nature) aren't good enough reasons to up and move to another country.

obv move to finland as a choice between finland and iceland. Land of Wintersun and countless other fantastic guitarists, land of musicians.
But it's really difficult to be granted citizenship in finland, they're not exactly looking for immigrants.

Half the year is darkness and the other half is too much sun, the hottest we get is like 15c and the coldest is like -5c
