    It was a rental apartment building. But I do totally regret not buying a condo back then. True. London as well. Even Lima. An condo in a decent area is more than Van or Toronto.

    I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to create conflict here. It is an important discussion though. I really appreciate all the info and opinions. One thing's for sure, I think we can all agree that rent in Toronto and Vancouver in general has skyrocketed and is too high. Can you all believe that a...

    I'm really surprised at this. In uni days I volunteered in the elementary school in Regent Park (2000-2001). At that time it was a really run down area, and def no condos. I bet all of Toronto has changed a lot. Vancouver too, so I hear. Even though I'm from Canada, I feel like I'm moving to a...

    Thanks so much for the advice and info! Indeed, money is an issue, especially b/c we have two young kids, and can't risk running out of money before we're settled and working. Both hubby and I dread the interview process, lol. But I love hearing inspiring and positive experiences, such as yours!

    Thanks for your reply! No, no tech background unfortunately. My husband is a professional painter & decorator (top class in his field, trained in Japan). He hopes to start at his level in Canada, but reality might be different in the beginning, or maybe even long term... who knows. I studied...

    First Job, Canadian Experience

    My husband and I are interested in settling our family down in KW, a big reason being that Vancouver and Toronto (the two cities where I lived in in Canada) are too expensive now. But my husband is South American (visible minority) and worried about living in a city that's not multicultural...

    Good, sound advice. Really helpful, thank you! It will be useful for my husband, who I am sponsoring, and even for myself. I've been out of Canada for so long, and have no work experience in Canada post graduation from uni.

    Thanks so much for responding! Was it in Ontario? Did they give you a G1 or G2, and without road test? And then after the two years, you did the G2 road test?

    Exchange UK license for Ontario license, less than 2 years driving, need to take G1 test?

    Hi all, I have a question. When exchanging a UK license in Ontario, do you need to take the G1 road test if you have over one year but less than two years driving experience? Or can you obtain the G2 license without taking a test? The info on the internet is confusing. I sent an email inquiry...

    Hi! We're not alone! Gosh, you sent the docs on the 19th, and no response yet? It must be driving you crazy. The waiting is so hard. What did you have to send in? They asked my husband for new police certificates from his country.
