Well Canada’s army did go with the VW Iltis and the G-wagon instead of the Hummer.

I don’t blame you. I am unfortunately glued to American politics at the expense of my sanity.

Canada is good. So is  is Mexico, which is definitely the more fun side of Trump’s wall lol

it’s been LSX swapped with a T56.

The truly stupid thing is that I of all people do not qualify under Canada’s skilled workers quota. Which should tell you how fucking broken it is.

They place more priority on a college degree and speaking French than “I’ve been doing this two and a half decades, oh, and because I work remote my high paying job actually comes with me. ”

So... two steps forward (LSX/T56) and two steps back (stanced suspension/tires with no sidewalls).

There is a down side to Canada too.

It is also made to admit only younger skilled workers by design, so the local wages can be stagnated by hiring desperate immigrants, who are ready to rent houses in a city owned by rich speculators.

Thankfully, it is possible to live comfortably despite these things for enough people. I’m just lucky to be one of them.

Oh, don’t worry, I’m sure those speculators will really strike it rich once the shooting starts down here and it’s flooded with rich “refugees” again . And make no mistake, that is exactly the direction things are going.

Just don’t ask for p uta in by mistake . Unless that’s what you really want. It’ll cost you though...

How did you manage that? I’m assuming an employer sponsored you? Because I seriously  looked into that at one point about 10 or so years ago, and it seemed kind of tricky. Love the country, though, visit as often as possible.

Welcome! How are you liking it? 

Tapas > Keon 03/04/2019 at 21:40

I like it a lot! But I feel like I need to make a ton more money to be able to have more than one car and a place to park them.

Tapas > ranwhenparked 03/04/2019 at 21:52

It is tricky, but the requirements are clear. In the US, the requirement is luck, money or a combination.

I went through the skilled worker thinga majig. Moved here with no job. It was challenging.
