Without knowing anything about the rest of your setup, the Ryzen 3600 (or even the 3600X) seems like a no brainer as it's likely to drop below $200 CAD around Black Friday.

If buying new, the best upgrade you could make is a R3 3100 and re-use your mobo. You could also try to score a used 3600 in your budget for a much bigger upgrade.

the 3100 is rarely in stock, or so im told, but this seems like an amazing deal

The 2600 is okay. But i'd rather try to get a use 3600. It's a much better architecture.

3100 has a good availability and if you wait for zen 3 lunch and black friday you might be able to score a 3600
