Any Canadians here? Real estate question

My husband and I have a little over 100k in our savings and are thinking of buying a house. We are not currently living in Canada but are planning on moving in the next two years. I'm wondering firstly if 100k is enough to get an ok mortgage?? Also where would you recommend a nice place to look for a house in Ontario? Preferably close to Toronto because that's where we will be working. Any small cute towns nearby?? We want a family house as we have two kids. Any advice would be hugely appreciated!! Thank you in advance!
