Working the winter season in Vancouver
Hello all 
me and my partner have always wanted to travel to Vancouver and work for about 3-6 months. We have decided that we definately want to do this during the winter season, but need some advice from people who have done this about visa's etc.
Any help would be very much appreciated!!!

Re: Working the winter season in Vancouver
Hi and welcome! Depending on your age you may qualify for a Bunac visa.
Basically a 12 month working visa for people under 30 (ish!)
Any other visa will require a job offer beforehand although if it is seasonal temporary work you are after then these may be easier to come across. You would require a job offer to apply for a temporary work permit.
If you read the WIKI up at the top this will give you the options available to you.
(All of the above has been very much simplified by the way!)
