that's right........It's the name of a hotel in Ballachulish (wasn't that a kids' TV programme too?!) No I think that's Balamory

Hey all,
I've been thinking about moving out to Canada on and off for the last 6 years.
We spent 3 weeks this summer in British Columbia and Alberta which was really good.
I'm now seriously thinking about starting an Skilled worker application, but need to do a bit of research. I'm sure I'll come up with loads of questions.
Is there anyone else around the central Scotland in a similar position?
Thanks

I was wrong about Ballachulish being a programme, googled and it seems the program I'm thinking of was actually called "Seaview" (?1980-83ish, with a teenage Yvette Fielding). I think the guest house they lived in was called Ballachulish. And it was in Blackpool. Go figure

I've been here in regina for 2 years now and just got my landed imigrant status.
came over from ayrshire.
Apart from the -40 in the winter and the +40 is the summer it's really good
Although i know BC and Alberta are the most popular towns
I find the life style in general pretty good here in Sk.

Hello from Ayrshire
We have also been thinking of moving to Canada - can't quite decide where. I lived in Ontario for 2 years in the early 90's, now want to move back with my family. I would also be going through the skilled worker programme, so many hoops to jump through.... would love to hear from anyone out there with similar ideas.

i was lucky since i was 36 on year of entry i managed to squeeze in for the 1st year under the Bunac program
Then company sponsered me for the 2 year work visa.
my skilled workers visa via the provincial nominee which was supposedly fast tracked too 8 months to complete
But 1 of the problems i had which delayed it a month was the scottish police gave me the wrong form the first time. Dont use the disclosure scotland one as its not go enough information.
Inform them it's got be done under the data protection act section 7 to get the right one and it's a pdf to fill out and cheque
