Will he be able to get a work visa? Canada isnt as restrictive as the US in awarding them, but its still not something that a given. Hopefully, you can do some research into it. I cant help since I have never looked into that. But, in retail, yeah, you would need to be billingual. He may luck out and get a job in the depth of Westmount, NDG, Pointe Claire or the west side of Downtown that doesnt require it, but it may be difficult. While UBC is a great school, McGill and Queens (in Kingston Ontario) are by far the schools with the best international reputations in the country. Concordia is quite a good school in that field too, but, no one will know it outside of Canada (and even then, outside of Montreal will be a stretch).Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Richards 0 #30 September 27, 2006 QuoteChilliwack is closed..
