Nogen:Hi.. if it's Sherbrooke in Montreal you mean.. concerning transport, the transport system is very efficient in Montreal. Almost everywhere is connected to the underground metro.. Metro (comes every 3-5mins) is more reliable than buses although the buses are also efficient. I totally enjoyed using the metro.. McGill metro station is the largest with lots of shopping outlets, restaurants, currency exchange etc all underground. There's a metro station just in front of University of Sherbrooke. With a single transport card, you will have full access to the metro and the bus. There're discounts for students and youths. I don't know how true it is but my friend (a student) says Montreal's transport system is second to none in Canada. Montreal made me fall in love with Canada sha.. I over explored the city using the efficient metro and my darling Google map. Got lost on few occasions 12 Likes 1 Share |

eclectic139: You can also use wakanow, cheapflightsdotcom. You can get your SIN from service Canada centers near you. I don't know if the officials handling that have closing hours during weekdays. But make sure you ASK once you get to the immigration officials. I wasn't able to get mine at the airport despite being so keen on doing it, just cause I misinterpreted a directive. Ethiopian airline is very OK and i would recommend it. There's inflight entertainment in both legs of the trip and very short stop at Addis Ababa. Though you may not enjoy their food, you can request for more of the stuff you prefer. No transit visa required as already pointed out earlier. I had whole row to myself in economy and I slept on all three seats comfortably for the long flight to Toronto 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Goodday e-fam Please is there anyone in this Canny journey, or knows anyone in it who studied Dentistry? - What are the requirements for evaluation of credentials and which body does that? - The person is an accompanying spouse and she says one of her friends there had to go back to school for 2years before she could practice. That the path for dentists is different from that of medical doctors. How credible is this please? - Which province(s) would most likely favor people in such careers? Personal experiences would be appreciated too. Thanks fam. |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by Nobody: 3:46am On Dec 18, 2017 |
mcstan18: For Health professionals, majority of those intending to practise are usually advised to make it a long term career goal, so frustration doesn't set it. Path for dentists is different, different province have their bridging programs in which you would have to take a prior learning assessment. Province wise, you can work anywhere. Just Google the information you need, the right contents will pop up |

vcole: Hi! He needs to send a mail back asap, he would be advised to send some documents for the wife, pay her fees, and other things. If he tries to send the passport, and updates them after, the present visa, Would still be cancelled, Because his COPR Would bear a wrong marital status. It will take time, Because there would be more scrutiny, but both of them would get PPR together. He needs to send a mail to the VO first, he would be sent further instructions. 3 Likes |

I am yet to see any. The people I know have MSc. as well. However, I think it depends on the curriculum and the course of study. Adiahabasi: |

Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by vcole: 5:35pm On Dec 18, 2017 |
careerwoman:Just read through your posts again. If I may add, in my opinion, for you the best route would be tp write plab during or just after nysc. For now, jobs are readily available in the uk once you have your gmc license. So with your tier 2 status in the UK and hopefully getting a residency after about a year as a MO, you'll be better prepped for a move to Canada. With a specialist license from the UK, you get a full license here as well and can get a job immediately. However if you don't finish your residency from the UK but you have 2yrs of practice there, or 2yrs of gp residency there and you move here, you can get into the PRA program and sign a 3-4yr return of service contract in exchange for your license in some provinces. 2 Likes |
