Consumption and Real Estate
My Wife and I are considering moving to Canada along with our 3 year old son. How hard will it be to get work?
Question : My Wife and I are considering moving to Canada along with our 3 year old son. How hard will it be to get work?
My wife and I are well educated and want to become productive members of Canadian society and raise our son there. We are not interested and just moching off of their healthcare system, in fact we are all very healthy.
Currently my wife is a Real Estate agent and I doubt that will be possible to continue up there, but she does have a bachelors degree in Communications. I have a Masters in Sports and Facility Management, have worked in pro-sports, am a series 7 licensed stock broker that has spent 4 years in banking and I have a NASM personal training certification.
My question is, how hard will it be to get a work visa? How hard will it be to move the family? which career or job paths would be easiest to acquire? and what should my first steps be?
Right now we have 1-2 years before we will be ready to make the jump and I want to learn all I can.
thanks for the help.

Real estate is booming here in Vancouver, and with the 2010 Olympics coming it’s expected to remain that way. I think your wife would have tons of opportunities in the real estate business if you moved here, although I’ve heard it’s quite competitive.
And just so you know, Vancouver and the entire lower mainland are beautiful places to live and raise a family. Hope you find what you’re looking for! =)

You could apply for permanent residency and then when approved, just move and work. You shouldn’t have any particular problem. Your wife would have to get licensed in whatever province you move to, but the laws are very similar so that would be easy for her.
