38 years in Canada
 
well, it has been fruitful, but of late the desire has hit me to return to my roots in England.
It's not til you have been away so long (having returned for holidays) that you realise how much history is wrapped up in the Island.
The wife has said "dont talk about if you want to go", oh decisions decisions, hmmm

An important question to answer before even starting to contemplate something like this is - have you got Canadian citizenship?

You're be surprised how many people don't have Canadian citizenship (even after 30 years), leave Canada for a few years, and then can't get back into the country as their permanent residence is lost.
