hi
I have my class 1 hgv and also my ADR have over 10 yrs experience driving alcohol... my wife is a trained nurse and has just qualified we are looking to emigrate to Canada.
the problem is I'm in my 50s and my wife is a wee bit younger than me we also have two children.
don't have a clue how to start the ball rolling to emigrate to Canada or even where the best place would be for the two of us to get a job.
if any one could help it would be fantastic...thanks

Hi, and welcome to BE. Your first step would be to look and see if you qualify for a visa, your wife would be the main applicant. Start here - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration...ess-entry.html


Your wife will need to jump through quite a lot of hoops to be able to nurse in Canada, expect it to take a year or more and to cost $$$$. You can search the forum for info on how she can get her nursing experience recognised and what she'll need to do, tons of threads for a bit of light reading! For your work, this Wiki article may be helpful - https://britishexpats.com/wiki/Truck_Driving_in_Canada_

Do you have any province in mind, have you visited Canada before?
