We're from North Yorkshire
We need all the support we can get It's all a bit confusing! (A BIT???!!!)

Ey up,

We're now in Newcastle, but the wife and I are both from Richmond.

We're going to Manitoba through the Provincial Nomination route.

Nearly there - just waiting to be asked for passports - which seems to be taking ages!

Good luck!

Cheers

Yes, I am. Been away from the forums for a while but we're in the throes of applying now after a lot of procrastination. Not that I can be of help though I don't think!
I'm in Hull, btw.

WOW, how fantastic!
Good luck and send us a post card

Hullo We're in Selby (Smelby LOL)

Good luck and stay in touch please!!!

IT WILL, fingers crossed for you!

Hi there, we moved from Selby (well Brayton) in March 2005.

We love it here, although it's a little hot at the moment!

Welcome

Linda

It'll be great to keep in touch

I was born in Sheep Ridge in 1944 but only stayed a few months, does that count.?

In 2 weeks it will be exactly 50 years in Canada.

of course it counts
50 years? Wow! My dad had the chance to emigrate to Canada - Ontario I think - when I was young and he got scared and turned it down. He always regretted it till the day he died.

Hi
Yes, I'm from Yorkshire too. Halifax. My OH is Canadian and from BC but house prices are ridiculous over there so we're looking into Nova Scotia. The flight is shorter too.
Best wishes

Nova Scotia is a pretty Province and you will find less expensive Housing, but it will not appreciate to the same degree as property in BC.

Capital Gains on your Primary residence are Tax Free, so the trick is to Buy property that will appreciate when you are young, Sell and Buy Down when you retire, put the money in the bank to augment income.

Mahone Bay is my personal favourite, followed by Luneneberg and Chester.

Hi Linda!
Whereabouts in Canada are you?
Hot is good We're swimming here LOL It's been raining for weeks non stop!

Sure it does!
Do you visit UK at all?
Where in Canada are you Howard?

I was born in Poland, 10 years in England....Not sure whether or LOL
