Unless you are very lucky and fall into a good job like I did, any company with an LMIA will be a crap job, it stands to reason that it won’t be the best job if they have to recruit from overseas.So you have to do your time at that job until you get nominated for Permanent Residency. That differs from province to province, Manitoba where I did my immigration stuff requires 6 months on a Temporary Work Permit before you can apply for nomination, that is another six months at least and then you have two years for PR from start to finish, so you could be in that crap job for quite some time.
This is all a big downside.
The food is another downside, especially when you’re out on the road, unless you like plastic cheese
Other than that it’s alright, picking the right location is problematic as you have to go to the area you can get a job and that may or may not be your idea of paradise, but that is what it is.
Things I miss, family, friends, food and football.
Dont you mean soccer
GRRRRR…
