Yes.   Many Western Canadians do not like Toronto / Ontario or Quebec... but I would say the dislike for each of Toronto / Quebec are for different reasons.   Toronto for acting like its the "Center of the Universe" and a bit for its liberal political leanings.   Quebec partially for being French but more so because of them doing whatever they feel like, feeling overly entitled and also feeling they are owed something / separatists **.

I would also say that many in Ontario have a certain dislike for some elements of Alberta as it has the most conservative population in Canada (although not all of its people are that way either).  As an example right on this board, Cowtown has once suggested that I am not that far from a communist for supporting the Liberal party, which is really silly stuff but is typical Western Canada political drivel.   You don't have to like liberals, or like Trudeau (I don't as of now), but to then state nonsense like its communist is just silly.

** I am a French Canadian living in Ontario, but that doesn't mean I support what Quebec does or support their separation rationale.  I have no affiliation to Quebec, yet some people have harassed, vandalized, and bullied me and my family in the past (especially around the 1980 separation vote) purely because we were French.  I still have one friend who still thinks I want to separate with the rest of Quebec, even if I don't live there and decry it as totally illogical.    Other then that he is a good guy.
