Fort McMurray has been named the most romantic city in the country by Amazon.

The company has been ranking the top 20 most romantic cities in Canada for the past eleven years.

For the past seven years Victoria, BC held the top spot, before getting knocked down to number 10 in 2020.

In 2019 Fort McMurray was the third most romantic city and in 2018 the “land of lovers” got the fifth spot.

To make the list Amazon compares sales data purchased on a per capita basis in cities with more than 20,000 residents.

The data looks at purchases of romance novels, relationship books, romantic comedies as well as jewelry and sexual wellness products.

Amazon said jewelry such as silver pendants and hand-engraved locket necklaces were hot sellers.

When it came to movies, classics such as “Titanic”, “Sleepless in Seattle” and “Love Actually” were in big demand.

Relationship books such as “The Five Love Languages” and the latest novel by “Fifty Shades of Grey” author EL James were also top sellers.
