@zakoy:

duna mi na stay-han diri's Edmonton pag abot - brother sa akong wife, basically 3 months unta mi didto sa ila... but my wife went to Calgary last December for a project - so we ended up delaying the transfer a bit - from August 2010, last week of December nami naka balhin ug amo-a.

The experience was fun and I was able to go to Calgary every weekend to be with her (company expense)... it is an OK OK place...

duna mi kaila nga couples ning abot two months after namo, sa Calgary sila... wala sila kaila didto, so they're sharing a place with other bisdaks didto. what I know is that duha sila ka family sa isa ka balay. shared apartment.

Ang bana kay nag work sa bank after my wife told him to try it out pud. After a few months, iyang wife nga nurse naka work ra man pud ug contractual - nursing related pud to.

What I know is that there's this apartment complex in Calgary nga gi ang-gaan ug "Boardwalk". It's a community of bisdaks didto sa Calgary. we were invited to go to the Christmas party last December, but duna man mi gi lakaw adto nga adlaw.

but here, its a different story. Ang bisdak mag work diri's Canada, ma inspired jud in every resort.

my routine in pinas:
- wake up 8, office at 9, gawas ug 6, overtime sa balay, luto, tan-aw ug pirated, tulog.

here in Canada.
- wake up 8:30, breakfast, office at 10, gawas between 5-6, uli sa apartment, swimming/workout, luto, movie watching, quality time sa asawa, tulog.

although walay red horse diri, pero sige lang, mas lingaw man :)

@believer: na libug ko kung saskatchewan jud mo or BC? anyways, good luck!!!

Salamat sa info about anang "Boardwalk". I'll look that up sa google. Hopefully ug madayun na inyong gi sulti na EB sa Banff, ikaw ang moderator ha? He He he 8)

hahhaha. the EB for Banff? di to serious oi... hangin ra toh. wala pa ko ka adto kay during that time - mas mahal pa ang transpo kaysa hotel sa Banff.

anyways, the "Boardwalk" thingy is just a nickname, "ang-ga" ra nah. (you cant google it) its like saying "chinatown" for chinese peeps... "boardwalk" is known to be the bisdak community in Calgary. Technically it's the name of the property management for the apartment complex... "Boardwalk" is also known to be a place for bisdak nga mag meet up, gather gather (like christmas party) and for those newcomers to Calgary seeking a place.

so ask around, your friends nga taga Calgary kung duna ba sila kaila nga "taga-boardwalk" or know someone that could arrage a place for you to stay when you start in Calgary.

What I know of is that the child benefits is "Universal", flat rate nga 100 per month per child regardless of income - for as long as below 18 that lives with you... the rest of the benefits kay murag mu apply pa ka and relative to your net income. according to my puti nga friends... ang gasto ra jud daw sa bata diri kay dula-an/entertainment ra jud... kay necessities like meals and schooling kay ma cover man jud sa allowance given by the local and federal government. they consider that a person should not be in financial burden because of having children...

im pretty sure, regardless if filipino or american citizen, basta imo nang anak... mao ra man siguro.

Nope. like I said, that "Boardwalk" thing is a property management company of apartments here in Canada. I've seen it in Calgary and even here in Edmonton.

sa mga bisdak nga taga Calgary, known jud nang Boardwalk as a community... its like if maka sugat ka nya ug bisdak sa Calgary and mag ask ka kung taga asa siya, mu ingon gani ug "taga-boardwalk", then meaning part na sya sa grupo.

naka agi mi ana when we were visiting a relative sa akong wifey in Calgary.

asa ko karon? Answer: Edmonton downtown, nag abang ug apartment.
(mu error man akong post oi, ingon nga Sorry, you are not allowed to post links. )

www (dot) realstar.ca/edmonton-apartments/macdonald-apartments.html

if you can see sa pictures, duna river nga duna barko... right now that river is frozen and ang barko kay gi park sa frozen river... nice kaau nga view. there's also swimming pool and gym and a good discount sa parking.
