i am also planning to move to either edmonton or calgary
just becoz of the reason that these cities are growing up cities hence we ll get more chance to grow up
beside this no tax for self employed
i may be wrong

Hi, yes planning to live in Edmonton have relatives there, but still expecting medicals... may be another few months...

Can you kindly inform about an issue regarding the receipt of PR card. I eventually plan to do the landing and go back (will return after a few months in summers). I will get only two weeks-off from work to do the landing process. Is it possible that the PR card can be received by my relative on my behalf and then courier it to me. Or do I have to be physically present to receive th PR card? Please can you kindly advise on this issue. Many thanks.
