Re: Studying in Canada to gain PR?
This:
"You will have to deal with Scotiabank to deposit around 10 thousand for yearly income for yourself which they will pay back to you at 2000 every few months or so ..plus they will charge u a hefty fee for doing that. Once u have applied and sent them your funds u have little chance of hearing from this bank."
is drivel. It's drivel in the sense that it's not true and it's drivel in the sense that it's not written in coherent English. Calling it drivel is a statement of fact rather than an attack.
"perhaps you yourself offer nothing more than drivel" is a personal attack because it's not based on anything, it's just a vague assertion. I can imagine that a poster subjected to such withering prose might well have burst into tears and be hiding in the bathroom unable to reach a computer. I can only hope that he took his fags with him.

Re: Studying in Canada to gain PR?
I came in late to this - I would never post to say 'you or your posts are drivel' or all 'bollocks'. Although, you are vague in your claim to have some expertise in the area of 'student finances & family affairs', which doesn't appear in your profile? Would you say that you are a qualified expert in finance, sociology, career counselling, guidance?
So why not come clean & tell us more about what your 'Advocate' position involves, how you came about having your knowledge & expertise in that area & who you are employed by?
Maybe being an 'Advocate' could be a career for those that have the knowledge & expertise that you do? How does one become an 'Advocate', what are the education & experience requirements?

Re: Studying in Canada to gain PR?
This whole thread is confusing.
1/ Why on earth do you want to study in Canada?
Compared to the extra curricular activities one partakes in UK universities you would not be giving yourself the most exciting life.
2/ Why would you study things you are not interested in? You are going to run up a huge bill, probably get a crap grade and you'll unlikely find employment to pay your huge bill off?
3/ Why not get experience in something you enjoy doing or a qualification back in the UK and then come here on IEC when you have something to offer so it also assists your future career if it doesn't work out?

Re: Studying in Canada to gain PR?
why not come for a 'look & see visit', or maybe as some posters have suggested the IEC route?
Travel and Work in Canada | Temporary Canada Work permit For Work Holidays for the United Kingdom| International Experience Canada
The other suggestion for you to consider going to college or university in the UK with some of that money you'd spend on coming to Canada at age 20, then once you have higher qualifications plus some experience you may likely be able to get to Canada on one of the many visa's available for skilled workers.
You have until your 31st Birthday (during age 30) to apply come to Canada on an IEC working holiday visa.
No need to rush to get here, you have time on your side.
Good luck to you

This is more like it! A good old Friday night/afternoon ding dong! Deleted posts, crying in toilets, chain smoking, drivel (lots of it)...Great stuff - I love it; keep it up!

Which university in Canada offers a two year course?
And why invest the time and money in a program in which you are not interested? That seems to be a prescription for failure. And since international student fees are much higher than what Canadians pay it would also be very costly.

Thompson Rivers University does.
University of the Fraser Valley does.
Capilano University does.
Vancouver Island University does.
I am sure there are others as well, but again all depends on how the term university is defined.
