Re: Canada
Most likely because employment opportunities are generally better in the UK, and access to major cities is much easier due to more favourable distances.
Also the pubs are better and housing is much cheaper when compared to location.
They're probably moving for the kids.

Re: Canada
Well let's see... Canada are currently inviting 1500 people to immigrate there roughly once every month so I would say that's a yes. Of course not all British.. On a thread around here somewhere is a demographic I believe..

Re: Canada
I'm intrigued by the price of property being cheaper?
I'd favour Canada to the UK to raise children.

Re: Canada
Biggest benefit I can see to the UK is being near other parts of the world allowing easier and less expensive to visit places.
Biggest downside to North America is being so far from everywhere else making it a costly venture to leave the continent, more costly then a lot can afford so a trip to Europe or such is a once in a life time thing.

Re: Canada
To what part?
Property, you only have to look on right move and already see what you get for you money compared to here. There is no comparison.
Socially London crime has soared, with areas that have literally become a micro nation within a country with more deprived areas here than I've seen abroad!

Re: Canada
Are there a lot moving to the UK from Canada? I wasn't aware. Some Canadians emigrate to the UK from here and some Brits move back to the UK. I personally am quite happy here for the time being. In the future - who can say. Can't say the crime rate when I lived in the UK was a major contributory factor in the decision to move.

Re: Canada
Why?
It is cheaper in some places to the Uk and not others. Some parts of the UK are way cheaper than parts of Canada. All depends what you need to what you can get away with paying/
Also like to know your rationale?
Are you deciding based on experience of Canada and the UK, or just think Canada looks better from the outside?

Re: Canada
When compared to location many areas are, yes. For example, when compared to proximity to major hubs, transportation, employment and employment options, and so on.

Re: Canada
Canada is bigger. There's more room for them to run about and play. I have at least one oversized child. The other one not so much, but she could get much bigger at any moment.

Re: Canada
It is
There is? I would disagree, unless they are into skiing or long distance hiking.
Keep them away from fast food joints then!
