@APPNOV2014NY Thank you I did, I found the homes are a bit more expensive than Laval and a bit run down. I really would love to live close to downtown Montreal as that's the best area but apartment prices are very expensive. For generalization I would say a good home in Oakville/Burlington...

@next2015 Thank you. I would love to live in downtown however I have a large family so would prefer a house somewhere near Laval perhaps. The rent I am paying is for a fully furnished short term rental, I could probably get an unfurnished apartment in the same building for about half the cost I...

That's not complicated. Just like taking any other flight. Check in and fly.

About Montreal. Montreal is a wonderful city. I've traveled all over the world and when compared to say London, New York, LA or Chicago it stands out. The builders of this city had great aesthetics and the residents kept up that tradition by decorating in good taste whatever they build. It is...

Hello, I used to read quite a few threads on this forum and others during my immigration process. Learned quite a bit. I landed recently and thought I should post a write up of my experience here to help other though the anxious process of immigrating. I flew from Qatar Airways as it fly's...

So I don't need to declare at immigration that I'm either carrying about a million CAD in bank drafts or expecting that to be wired as soon as I open a bank account ? Will probably invest in something but in no hurry. Asking as I might leave funds lying around till I find something worthwhile...

Salams, After a long process expecting landing papers in the next two weeks ! :D Am a Quebec Investor so will be landing in Montreal. Since most of you guys have gone though this settlement process, I would appreciate any advise on if I should land alone for the first time or with my wife and...

Thanks Brilliant!

Landing in Montreal soon with 10 suitcases and 3 young kids. I'm confused on how to go from the airport to my hotel in downtown. Surely no cab will be able to carry 10 large suitcases and 3/4 carry on's with a family of 5 in tow. I have no friends or family in Montreal. Need advice. TIA.

Thank you very much XpressEnterprise and scylla. Your posts are very useful and I've learned a lot of them.

Hi, I'll be landing in a few months and there is some confusion about if I can give *any* Canadian address for delivery of my PR cards when landing or only a Quebec address ? Some places I've read any Canadian address is fine, some places it says Quebec has different rules and a Quebec...
