What Canadian province was Justin Bieber born in?

Justin Bieber was born in the Canadian province of Ontario. More specifically, he was born in London, Ontario, on March 1, 1994, and later grew up in nearby Stratford.

Bieber was born at St. Joseph's Hospital in London to Jeremy Bieber and Pattie Mallette. His parents separated when he was young, and his mother raised him with help from her family. Although London was his birthplace, Stratford is the Ontario city most closely associated with his childhood and early rise to fame.

The distinction between birthplace and hometown sometimes causes confusion. Bieber did not grow up in British Columbia, Alberta, or Quebec; his early life and musical development took place in Ontario. He began posting singing performances on YouTube while still a teenager, which eventually led talent manager Scooter Braun to discover him.

His Ontario background remained part of his public identity even after his career became international. Bieber's story is therefore tied to two Ontario cities: London, where he was born, and Stratford, where he was raised.
