After all the holiday fun, Uber Canada has compiled the data with the conclusion that Canadians are crushing their New Year’s resolutions by hitting the gym, ditching the booze, and going all in on their health and wellness goals. For the second year, Uber Canada is sharing data revealing how different Canadian cities are measuring up to their “New Year, New Me” ambitions this January.

The Uber Eats and rides data highlights which Canadian cities are ordering the least amount of alcohol this month, the cities most inclined to swap their nights out for nights in and the “types” of alcohol drinkers who are cutting back the most. We’re also identifying the cities that doubled down on health-conscious culture, swapping sweet treats for sweat sessions in 2025.

Torontonians cracked the top three for the cities ordering the most from the “healthy” category taking the third spot. They also made the list for cities that took the most trips to the gym, ordered the most juices/smoothies and ordered the most mocktails.
Check out some of January’s wellness wins below*:
