@internetg611 You are describing an issue that is inherent with online play. It will likely not improve until long after you are dead - the solution is to play offline so your gaming system is the server.
Welcome to the online world. I mean I live down here in Florida so I'm always getting done over by EA when it comes to hockey. I feel there needs to be a server in Georgia but there isn't. At least FIFA was kind enough to add a Miami server.
Should be like 3 servers spread out in Canada, 6 spread out in the US spread out with 3 in the upper state area and 3 towards the southern states. But that costs money and EA only likes to make it not give it away.

The reason why we don't have servers everywhere is because that dilutes the player pool. Sure, you would have a higher ping being on a closer server, but that doesn't really matter if you can't find any matches due to players that you would normally match with are now playing on different servers.
The fact there isn’t a server in the Toronto area is a joke. I find it hard to believe the MAJORITY of players using the east servers aren’t in Ontario, and specifically the Toronto area. So now all you guys have is a majority having to be put at a disadvantage, while the French playerbase gets the best gaming experience possible for the game and a massive advantage.
Adding another server in Toronto would not “dilute” the player pool. You guys putting the server In Quebec must mean there is a large playerbase there, cause if there isn’t then it further proves me point that Toronto should have been the choice. And if it is the case that it’s a big playerbase in Quebec, then there should be no issue separating Ontario from it with their own server
