lots of questions
#1
ok where to start ? have been searching through the threads for a while now and reading other information but cannot seem to get the answers we need, i apologise in advance if this has already been covered elsewhere but here goes:
We are OH (46) me (44) 2 kids 10 & 3
OH is bricklayer/stonemason, has been told by agency in dublin who are organising visa can get work in AB or ON on a TWP, have been told will have a contract before we leave with wages of 40 - 50 CAD an hour, i have a BA in applied social studies and have worked in the field for over 15 years and would hope to work eventually, when kids settled. We will have to rent a house and buy 2 cars maybe 1 financed, also i am aware that each province is different!
On above wages what would be an approx figure that OH would clear weekly and would it be enough to survive till i start working?
Between AB and ON what are differences between house rental figures, schools etc ?
will are ages go against us?
does anyone have any info on jobs within the social care, community/youth work field?
one of the reasons we are thinking of emmigrating is that the construction industry in ireland is slowing and the first people to go are blocklayers, we are not looking for big money just some level of job security and continuity, which province would best meet this?
If anyone can help with any of the above we would really appreciate it thanks
