Cost of living in Canada by Julien
Hi everybody, Let's share our experience about the cost of living in Canada. It would be interesting to gather everything in one unique post. Don't forget to mention where you're living: state and city (is it a big/small city?) Let's compare ...
The cost of living can vary a lot from a province to another, but also from one area to another within the same province. I currently live in Waterloo, Ontario, a medium size city whose economy is mainly based on hi-tech, insurance, automobile ... Read More
World Cup!! by Jo Ann
Yep! I'm a huge fan of Football (soccer) World Cup. But it's impossible to have one and only favourite team! At least for me! :P For example, I've always been for Brazil because Angola and Brazil are very linked by history and boy do they know how ...
It was a great game. Both teams played well and I really enjoyed the show. Zidane's gesture is quite inexplicable, and whatever Materazzi told him, no matter how nasty, his red card was well deserved. I like Zidane very much but at that level of ... Read More

Numeric or biometric? by Olivier de Montréal
It's an obvious allusion to the last news. Since last wednesday, a biometric passport is requested to go to the USA. The people whose non-biometric passeport has been delivered after October 26th 2005 will need a visa. Do you feel concerned? ...
This is a major concern to us as since 2001 we have decided not to travel to (nor fly through) the US as long as we do not have Canadian passports. I just don't like the idea of the mugshot and fingerprints, and the administrivia can quickly become ... Read More
Ways to go around the world by Tôm Cà ng
What is your main mean of transportation in your everyday life? Answer feet only if it's the only way you move around. For cycle, tick the motorbike (I know, I know, it's not the same...). You can answer even if you don't own the vehicule itself. ...
No 100cc "Honda Dream" nor ox back riding here ;) Whatever I do, wherever I go, I have to drive my car. If I lived in downtown Toronto I would have the choice to ride either the subway, the bus or the streetcar (tramway), but in suburban North ... Read More

The first poll of the expat forum! It is associated to this post: /forum/viewtopic.php?id=27 Did you move for professional reasons, for your studies, because you really wanted to (you move without a job), or for any other ...
