You might want to look at other options. Have you consider a move to Columbia? It's like Canada, it begins with 'c', just the winters are less harsh and it's a bit further south.

Car insurance is especially cheap in BC and Alberda.

No, Walmart has a restricted range of items, you are best to look in your local 'Little Britain' store. They will be next to the Heinz sponge puddings.

You don't need a container, bring it all in your suitcases.
Paperwork is not required either in BC. You will get waved through at immigration.
