Re: U.K. To Canada
Hey, me and my partner are looking at doing the exact same thing!
Have you applied for the IEC yet? I'm guessing your waiting til 2017?
How are you planning on staying after the 2 years? I'm going to try and get a TWP in my field, but this is probably going to be really difficult.
What parts of Canada have you looked at?

I'm kind of torn between Toronto and Vancouver, but I think I'm leaning more towards Vancouver to be honest. There is a guy who has just joined my work who did an IEC and frequently goes out there for months at a time. I've picked his brains about everything I wanted to ask, and he absolutely loves it there so that kind of gives me a bit of confidence in a way.
I haven't really got a long term plan yet, I think I'm just going to focus on getting there, trying to get any job so that I'll have money coming in and then try and find something in my field.
But I would say in the mean time just do a but load of research and try and save as much as you can

Hi, yeah I am going to wait until the dates are available for 2017 and apply then.

good to see other people going through the same thing as us.
Good luck!

Yeah it is good to speak to like minded people, send private message and keep in touch if you like, it would be good to speak to someone who is going through the same thing and see how they get on.
