I'd suggest Edmonton. Your wage will be $12 per hour for a 40 hour week, and you will pay at least $2.50 of that in tax.

Good luck and enjoy :thumbup:

Play nice:frown:

Perhaps you could have looked up the labour market information for brickies in Edmonton, or suggested an edmonton neighbourhood instead.

Hopefully that was directed at the OP ;)

In all seriousness, Woollends, in order to get some more accurate information you need to be a little more open as to your situation (do you have a visa or not? Is there any specific reason you choose Edmonton? What is your experience level work-wise? What is your budget? During your reasearch, what are the ball park wages you've seen for work that suits you? etc etc etc).
