Hi not a bricklayer I've got a proper trade ( spark ) Lol no only joking i've been here since june 08 we met up via this site with another family who arrived the day before us He's a bricky so he could fill you in more there user name is jcd it's worth a try good luck chaz

I don't know about bricklaying being different here than in uk. But two things to consider: Vancouver's climate is mild compared to the rest of Canada. Shouldn't think you'll be laid off in the winter - just wet

and our houses are made of wood, old packing cases and whatnot. So that's got to be different than the uk.

Warmly,

Frank
