Moving to Montreal
Hi there
I will be in Montreal during September after many previous visits with a view to go to M to live. Does anyone have any experience of the best way to job search for jobs in English? I am considering setting up my own business too. I know that I can visit for 6 months and obtain a temporary work permit, but am find the Canadian Gov web site rather difficult to get all the facts. Should I go to Canada House in London?
I would be most grateful for any advice - hey and may be a meet up whilst I am there!!!
Many thanks
Rosemary

Re: Moving to Montreal
The Youth Employment Centre (yesmontreal.ca) is a good resource when for searching for English-speaking jobs in Montreal. You also have the Gazette, the local English paper (montrealgazette.com), and the major online job sites like workopolis.com, monster.ca and jobboom.ca.
As for visas to work there, you'd better contact CHC London before you make any plans. The immigration board on this site is very good for helping you through the process as there are a lot of people in the same position that can help.
Good luck!
