If Canada doesn't want skilled immigrants , why do they allow them/us in? I thought the reason was because they were short of the right calibre of workers.
My husband has a degree in MicroElectronics and Computing- he is not stupid- his profession right now and since we came to Canada? A handyman! What a waste!
How long have you been here now shelley? I take it he is (was) looking in the Ottawa tech corridor based on your location....not a lot of demand for computer bods in E Ontario otherwise as far as Im aware...just small scale stuff.

Sux big time, and then of course he was out of it too long to get back in.

I agree, and its symptomatic of the way the process was set up for years and years to favour qualification types over the reality of the jobs that were actually out there. I think the new system will help a lot in that regard, if it can react fast enough. No help to your OH though.

We have been here in Canada since 2002- he was looking at Ottawa because of the company he worked for in the UK.
We are both pretty fed up TBH, but trying to make the best of it.
