I don't like the aspects of 1 moose for 2 hunters. Not thrilled about Quebec but I notice some outfitters offer one bill per hunter packages
Does Ontario have similar packages?

I don't understand your question "one bill per hunter package"?
As far as the potential to take a moose then Newfoundland is probably your best option.

Moose populations are really suffering in the area I used to hunt in the NW. And it ain't cheap for non residents.
Newfoundland seems to have a good population of moose. And you get to partake of the Newfie culture as well.

gitem 12; Good evening to you sir, I trust that this last day of 2019 finds you well.
Although I've not personally driven to Newfoundland, our eldest daughter and her husband did and it's on my bucket list to do in retirement.
There's a ferry to get there, which is about 6 hours more or less if memory serves from what they said. I believe it's between Sydney, Nova Scotia and lands at Port aux Basques, Newfoundland.
From what I can glean on Canadian forums, Newfoundland is one of the few spots north of the medicine line where the moose populations are stable and not in decline.
Hopefully that was somewhat useful information, good luck whichever way you decide and Happy New Year to you and yours.

You can drive to Newfoundland. You'll have to take the ferry across to it.

When fishing around Wabigoon Lake I see no moose. You see more as you go north of Red Lake. When I lived between Vermillion Bay and Kenora I rarely saw moose. Too many deer, and too many wolves.

Morning gents, since you now have to buy a wolf license to shoot a wolf (in ont.) there numbers are up and the moose numbers are down. Our draw on moose tags is ridiculous!!! Maybe if you went with black powder, or archery in a very very hard to get to unit, you may draw a tag, maybe. I haven't went for moose in years so not sure about guides in Ontario , pretty sure guides in Newfoundlan get a few tags allotted to there business. Not sure about Ontario. . Newfoundland has no timber wolfes or very little so they have more moose. It's supposed to be great hospitality and the food is unbelievable, sea food, moose steaks, old fashioned house wives cooking, baking, pastries, hell im gona sign up tomorrow. Hope this helps. I'm out. Bill. 🐾👣🇨🇦

Ontario is in the midst of completely transforming their moose tag system and no one knows how it will settle out. A decision likely won’t’ be made until at least April. Word is they’re considering a points system.
I’ve committed to our moose camp for this year but depending how it shakes out, it may well be my last year moose hunting here.

Ontario has plenty of moose—you wouldn’t know it because since they closed down 38 paper mills there hasn’t been any road maintenance so drive in is limited. Ontario outfitters are allocated tags but they are restricted severely just like resident tags are. The only local guides i could recommend have retired—just like me. I have a friend—very knowledgeable—who recently moved to Pelly, Saskatchewan—he said moose thereabouts are plentiful.

Alberta has some of the most reasonable prices for big game hunting. It is on my to get to list for Whitetail, Mule deer, Moose and wolf.
