Moving to Canada from Britain

[JHB_AB]

Hi,

Me and my partner have been considering moving to Canada some time in the future and was wondering how hard or easy it would be for us. We are currently studying for our degrees at university, I am studying Human Biology and my partner is studying forensic computing. We thinking of moving to Canada either after finishing our degrees or after finishing our degrees and being employed for a few years.

Having never been to Canada yet i have a few questions about it, as we live in the UK we can speak English fluently and we were wondering what are the English speaking areas of Canada. Also what is the weather like in different parts of Canada, in Britain its mostly wet and windy all year round with not very well defined winters and summers. Will our UK drivers licenses carry over or will they be valid for a short time and then we have to take a Canadian driving test. Is there a website or book that briefly describes living in Canada.

Any information is appreciated,

Thanks

It's probably more realistic to plan to immigrate after you have a few years of work experience. Most of Canada's immigration programs require this.

Quebec is Canada's primarily French province. The rest are primarily English.

You'll find Canada is colder than the UK. Many places a great deal colder. If you're not great with the cold you might want to aim for a city like Vancouver.

Start at www.cic.gc.ca which will give you details of temporary and permanent immigration streams. Once you are in Canada then its easy to take care of the other admin type stuff like changing DLs.
