    Hi...the Canadian economy is booming despite the economic woes in the US http://www.cbc.ca/money/story/2007/10/05/looniejump.html ....as suggested the loonie is very strong against the pound...I remember getting over $2.50 Can. to £ a few years back...on the one hand, the latest is good news for employment opportunities but the obvious downside is less money after conversion to loonies....hmm...is it time to make the move back home with my English plumber???

    Hi.. you are well and truly sorted then...will the Left coast be your new home?...fantastic skiing/snowboarding but property prices have risen sharply in the past couple of years...lots of work in BC and Alberta if you have a trade.

    All the best for your move.
