Hello friends , I come again to you guys for some info and guidance. I have a friend that is being persecuted back home by gang members due to a car crash he was involved in, hes completely innocent but its sure not the case for these criminals. He has all police reports, pictures , etc...

Thank you anyway Leon. Ive been searching all over the forum and havent been able to find anything on someone thats returned to canada after retaining their PR status on HnC grounds. If anyone else has something they know please comment and let me know. thank u.

Leon please if you have any advice I'd deeply appreciate it ( or anyone that wants to comment ) I retained my PR status under HnC grounds. Im returning after 19 yrs. I have no address, SIN # etc. Nothing, Other than my travel document on my passport. I will be arriving by train from NY. And was...

Hello, I'm a permanent resident who was able to retain my status on HnC grounds after an absence of 19 years. I'm currently in New York visiting my family and will be crossing into Canada thru Niagara Falls: -what would be the best border to cross ( I understand there's several)? -My family...

I grew up in MB and it all I can say its wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to cold. ;D just my 2 cts

Hey Guys! A similar question was posted already in regards to a "decent" car loans for newcomers. Given the fact that we have no canadian credit history, the best that you can probably do is getting an insane monthly payment or crazy high interest rates or most likely get turned down. I read...

Yeahh , I guess it all balances itself out , one may have higher taxes and the others have lower real estat , etc. I dont have a degree yet and wish to continue my studies, so I guess from what Ive read Ontario has a more diverse job offer for someone like me?

I dont make my decisions based on the opinions of this forum. But I do take them into consideration, its because of this forum that I was able to retain my PR status based on HnC grounds, so if it hasnt been as helpful for you , well , not my problem. One other thing; the initial post asks in...

Thanks for all the feedback ! Im pretty much set on AB. Can anyone give me advice as far choosing a city to live in AB, what would be the main differences between Calgary and Edmonton, which city offers more jobs, weather , nightlife , people etc... Thank you. From all the pictures Ive seen...

There are resident obligations that have to be met in order to retain his PR status, look into that. My case was somewhat unique, I basically retained my PR under HnC grounds. Im 29 now , and Ive been living between Buenos Aires and New York , so I pretty much had enough of the big city life. I...

Yes , winters in Canada are tough , but hey, youll adapt trust me. There's many things to do in the snow. You got me thinking, where do you think it would be easier to find a job Calgary or Edmonton?

Im a permanent resident. Just been outside Canada for the past 19 yrs , I grew up in Manitoba and all I remember is the painful winters in Winnipeg. But thanx to all for your feedback. Alberta seems great!

Hi, and thank you for your input, can you explain what tax exemption is ? I do so much research and never came across those terms :D. Yeah most opinions are suggesting that I should land in AB. Most likely that will be my final choice. So I guess Quebec is not a smart a choice, not one...

Yes exactly ! I agree, that's why I was looking for opinions/experiences on these 3 provinces. My goal is to land a good job and if I can find one before I land, it would make it easier. But just in case I cant get one , I want to make a well informed decision , based on facts. I wonder what...

Like I said nothing against BC , it has the best weather in all of Canada but its very expensive, high taxes , same or lower income then other provinces, less jobs ect. It doesnt seem the best choice. Obviously if you've been living there for 15 yrs , have a job, are already a costume to the...

Vancouver is a bit too expensive for its minimum wage,jobs , high taxes, rent , ect. Its not a choice for me. Im sure its very beautiful but I think to land and integrate myself, it would just put necessary pressure , that if I cant get a job , rents to high ,services have 7-8% more taxes , but...

No, I dont speak french , but if it was worth it, I could learn and I would be tri-lingual so its a win win situation if you think about it. That's the kind of input or feedback that Id like; I heard that almost everything food,rent,etc.. Is more expensive in Alberta, so is it really worth it...

I did not know that. That's really awesome , thanks for you comment. I hope to hear many more. :D

Here's my dilemma , I've been researching where to land and live in Canada and from all the info I've come across it all points me in 3 directions since they are provinces where I have friends , so Nova Scotia and other provinces or cities (Ottawa has been highly recommended too) are not even a...

So here's the thing Im moving very soon to Canada and all seems to point that Im gonning to live in Ontario, Im a 29 single male ,so dont thing of kids , high schools , only security when giving your advice/opinion. What places are nice in toronto for someone like me. It doesnt have to be the...
