Default A new life on the road?

I am a lorry driver who has recently started contact with a company in NB with regards to moving myself and my family into Canada. The company's name is Elite Driver Training Services, based in Woodstock.

I was wondering if anybody has already made a successful move through this firm or has any information that they could share about Elite or partnering companies.

I know all the usual stuff re Redo my license, pay on wheels turning etc, but anything else you think I might need to know would be most helpful.

Let me be the first to welcome you to the madhouse known as BE.

As this is you very first post I'm sure you are unaware that there is a trucking forum as part of the site.

Your question likely has a much better chance of being answered there.

Elite Driver Training Services, based in Woodstock

I have a cousin who lives in Woodstock and is a Truck Driver. I will ask him if they used this company, or if he knows of them for you.

Hi, my OH came over via Elite Trucking in Woodstock, NB. OH been here since 28th March, myself and our son came over 6th May. A warning, he is very nice on the phone but as soon as he has his money he's not too bothered about helping you out! On the other hand things are alot better over here. If you decide to make the jump it might be worth talking to a few English drivers over here as they will beable to give you more helpful info.
