Default weather in canada

Hi all
We are now 99% certain canada will be our first ever big life changing move!!
Wife is hopefully going to email relevant hospitals to see if her childrens nursing qualifications will be relevant over in can and what hospitals are after said people(still sourcing who to email)

But would like people idea and help on climates and weather in canada please!

We dont expect sun sun sun,cos we would have to go to aus for that(wife wanted to go there 1st off) but would like nice summers
I dont mind seasons at all but want nice summers,unlike uk!
Dont want to be bang in a city or bang in the country either!!
We would like outdoor life style(i love riding motorbikes) but we also love to shop/eat nice restuarants etc etc
Thanks for all your help

Hi there,

For nursing jobs you need to go onto www.nurses.ab.ca their equlivent to NMC (she will know what i mean). Download all the info, application forms and job info etc from there.

Good Luck.

Nope. Nursing is administered at the provinical level so potentially you have to contact a nursing body in each province and territory.

What do you mean by 'nice summer', how hot do you want it? When I was in Ontario for summer it was very hot and humid, and I gather it's the same in other areas i.e. Montreal has very, very hot/humid summers. I'm not a fan of hot weather but if you like it then that may suit.

Also, if you were considering Oz and Spain because you like hot weather then are you sure that Canada is going to suit you? Can you cope with months and months of hard winter every year (in most provinces anyway)? Just a thought if you're a fan of warm weather!

Gosh, so you can be helpful!

Don't want to hijack the thread, but I would like to ask your views on counselling in Canada sometime in the future.

Expensive and rather an indulgence, I'd say. A peculiarly American affectation.

Hello.
Here's a link to the Weather Network. If you go onto the 'Weather' link and then 'Statistics', you will find all the information you need for any part of Canada...and more.
